Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively providing examples for creating a Windows virtual machine, omitting Linux VM creation steps. Both Azure CLI and PowerShell instructions are given, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is presented as an equal alternative, and no Linux-specific shell or command examples are provided. The tutorial does not mention or show how to use Linux images or create Linux VMs, nor does it address Linux-specific considerations for Automanage.
Recommendations
  • Add examples for creating a Linux virtual machine using both Azure CLI and PowerShell, including specifying a Linux image (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS).
  • Explicitly mention Linux support in the prerequisites and steps, clarifying that Automanage can be used with both Windows and Linux VMs.
  • Include screenshots or portal instructions that show Automanage applied to Linux VMs.
  • If there are differences in Automanage profile assignment or prerequisites for Linux VMs, document those clearly.
  • Consider adding bash or shell script equivalents for steps where PowerShell is used, to improve accessibility for Linux users.
