Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for creating VMs from generalized images in a gallery. However, PowerShell examples are heavily Windows-centric, with explicit use of Windows-only parameters (e.g., Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Windows), and the full parameter set is demonstrated only for Windows VMs. Windows-specific networking rules (e.g., RDP port 3389) are configured by default, and password complexity requirements link to Windows documentation. In several sections, Windows VM creation is shown before or instead of Linux, and PowerShell examples do not show Linux VM creation or configuration.
Recommendations
  • Add PowerShell examples for creating Linux VMs, including the use of Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Linux and relevant Linux configuration options.
  • In PowerShell sections, provide both Windows and Linux VM creation flows, or clarify when examples are Windows-only.
  • When showing networking rules, include SSH (port 22) alongside RDP (port 3389) and clarify their relevance for Linux and Windows VMs.
  • Ensure password complexity requirements reference both Windows and Linux documentation, or clarify differences.
  • Where examples are given, alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or present both together for parity.
