The answers do seem weird because the requirements are to run a PowerShell cmdlet and after the last answer step, you still can't run one lol. You would still need to type powershell at the cmd prompt. Also like others have said, there isn't a requirement for a custom storage for boot diagnostics. So its unclear if this is correct but seems like making the best of what is available.

Does anyone have any justification to change the boot diagnostics settings to a Custom storage account? I am not finding any justification to do this in the question. Changing to custom appears to be an unnecessary step without any value to me.

In fact this article says that managed is the one to use with serial connection so that would make the first answer totally wrong- use managed stroage account for serial connection https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/virtual-machines/serial-console-windows

For the last two items: 1. Connect to the serial console. If you successfully connect, the prompt is SAC>: 2. Enter cmd to create a channel that has a CMD instance. 3. Enter ch -si 1 or press the <esc>+<tab> shortcut keys to switch to the channel that's running the CMD instance. 4. Press Enter, and then enter sign-in credentials with administrative permissions. 5. After you've entered valid credentials, the CMD instance opens. 6. To start a PowerShell instance, enter PowerShell in the CMD instance, and then press Enter.
