Summary
The documentation provides detailed PowerShell examples for configuring Enhanced backup policies, with step-by-step cmdlets and explanations. The PowerShell section is significantly more extensive than the Azure CLI section, which is more concise and lacks equivalent depth. There are no Linux-specific shell (bash) examples, nor is there mention of Linux tools or patterns. The order of presentation places PowerShell before CLI, suggesting a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
- Add bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage in typical Linux environments.
- Include notes or examples for scripting backup policy management on Linux, such as using cron jobs or shell scripts.
- Balance the depth of CLI and PowerShell sections, providing equally detailed walkthroughs for CLI users.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility of CLI commands, and clarify any differences in behavior or prerequisites between Windows and Linux.
- Consider reordering sections to present CLI before PowerShell, or interleave examples to emphasize parity.
