This is new version of ALAR (alar2) it is intended to replace the current bash script based ALAR.
Any new development and bug-fixing will be performed on alar2 only.
There will be another PR again "Azure/azure-cli-extensions" for additional functionality as custom.py and repair_utils.py had to be extended/altered

I see some a lot of non-code files, can we remove the release files?

Let's change the map.json file description so that we can tell users that ALAR 2 might take some time.

Hi Sungwoo, anything else I should improve or verify?

{
"id" : "linux-alar2",
"path" : "src/linux/linux-alar2.sh",
"description" : "alar2 allows to recover a failed VM. Various actions are available like: fstab, initrd and kernel. NOTE: use option --run-on-repair. See the docu for more details: https://github.com/Azure/repair-script-library/blob/master/src/linux/common/helpers/alar2/README.md. Please be aware that alar2 needs to be build on the recovery VM first. This takes about 2min. Please be patient."

  1. Remove "Please be patient."
  2. Please be aware that alar2 needs to be build on the recovery VM first
  • what does this tell the user? run the command using --run-on-repair ? I think this should be removed or clarified.
  1. This takes about 2min
    => The script takes around 2 minutes to run.

Let's add a Readme for ALAR2 in the similar fashion as ALAR1 readme: https://github.com/Azure/repair-script-library/blob/alar2-test/src/linux/common/helpers/alar/README.md

This "pull request" is not writable for me anymore. As branch alar2-test got created not as PR. It was a direct commit against the repository.
We need at first to merge it into main. Then I can add the missing files
