Summary
The documentation provides disaster recovery guidance for Azure Automation, which applies to both Linux and Windows VMs. However, all migration scripts and automation examples are exclusively PowerShell-based, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Python alternatives. The instructions for Hybrid Runbook Worker reference both Windows and Linux, but all migration and runbook automation is presented only with PowerShell scripts and workflows, which are traditionally Windows-centric tools. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may prefer or require non-PowerShell solutions.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent migration scripts or runbooks using Azure CLI and/or Python to support Linux/macOS users.
- Include explicit examples or tabs for Bash/Azure CLI where PowerShell is currently used.
- Clarify if PowerShell Core (cross-platform) is supported and provide guidance for running scripts on Linux/macOS.
- Reference or link to any existing Linux/macOS-friendly tools or documentation for Automation account asset migration.
