Summary
The documentation page generally maintains parity between Windows and Linux, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Windows-specific details (e.g., page file placement, cache sizing for Windows images) are presented before or in more detail than Linux equivalents. PowerShell is mentioned before CLI in the customer-managed key section, and the example for cache placement only references Windows Server images, while Linux (Ubuntu) is only mentioned for temp/NVMe placement. There are no explicit Linux command examples, and some technical details (like page file placement) are only described for Windows.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific technical details where Windows details are given (e.g., swap file placement for Linux).
- Ensure Linux examples are presented alongside Windows examples, especially in sections discussing disk sizing and placement.
- Mention CLI and Linux tools before or alongside PowerShell, or provide equal prominence.
- Add explicit Linux command examples (e.g., Azure CLI commands for Linux VM configuration) where PowerShell is referenced.
- Clarify any differences in ephemeral disk behavior for Linux VMs, not just Windows.
