It would be good to get parity on the Mac version of powershell. I have a lot of trouble using the cmdlets on mac, and I'm trying to make platform agnostic deployment scripts.

I'd like to be able to import/export whole zones with the import being idempotent.

I want to be able to maintain a zone file and just import it any time I need to make a change.

PS> MyZone_com.dns | Import-AzureRmDnsZone -ZoneName $zone would be nice.

Good feedback, thank you. I'll track on our backlog.

Since updating to Azure PowerShell 4.3.0, every Azure PowerShell cmdlet is returning "WARNING: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null." Further details in MSDN forum post:

Can this be installed on Linux (Ubuntu) ?

I'm interested in an azuresdk/azure-powershell docker image with PowerShell 5.x.x Is there any ETA on when that will be made available?

Looks like 4.4.0 is the latest
