[Reference feedback]: az vm run-command invoke inconsistencies

[pagienge]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Reference command name

az vm run-command invoke --resource-group litterbox --vm-name u2404 --command-id ifconfig

Feedback

The documented option to specify the 'vm' for this command is --vm-name. When running the command in the azcli using --vm-name produces

unrecognized arguments: --vm-name u2404

The functional way to achieve this is to use "--name" instead. I tested a different subcommand to az vm and that command also only worked with --name but not --vm-name, so it would stand to reason the doc is wrong. For reference, the other command was az vm boot-diagnostics get-boot-log, and that command's doc includes both --name and --vm-name although --vm-name doesn't work.
