Summary
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-based OS images (e.g., '2022-datacenter-azure-edition') are used as the default and only example in ARM template, CLI, and PowerShell code blocks. The ARM template quickstart link points to a Windows-specific template. PowerShell is heavily featured, and the CLI/PowerShell examples use Windows image SKUs without showing Linux equivalents. The Guest Attestation extension section lists both Windows and Linux publishers, but no Linux-specific example is provided. There are no explicit Linux OS image examples or instructions for enabling Trusted Launch on Linux-based scale sets.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples using Linux OS images (e.g., Ubuntu, RHEL) in all code snippets (ARM template, CLI, PowerShell) alongside or alternating with Windows examples.
  • Include links to Linux-specific ARM template quickstarts, not just Windows.
  • In the Guest Attestation extension section, show explicit examples for both Windows and Linux extension publishers.
  • Clarify in each section that Trusted Launch is supported for both Windows and Linux, and highlight any Linux-specific considerations.
  • Ensure that CLI and PowerShell examples use both Windows and Linux image SKUs, or alternate between them.
  • Review and update screenshots and portal instructions to reflect Linux scenarios where applicable.
