Description
### Type of issue
Code doesn't work
### Reference command name
az disk create
### Feedback
documentation page with issue https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/disk-encryption-migrate
on this page is the following snippet:
```
# Get the source disk ID
SOURCE_DISK_ID=$(az disk show --resource-group "MyResourceGroup" --name "MySourceDisk" --query "id" -o tsv)
# Create a new disk from the source disk
az disk create --resource-group "MyResourceGroup" --name "MyTargetDisk"
--source "$SOURCE_DISK_ID" --upload-type "Copy"
# For OS disks, specify --os-type "Linux" or --os-type "Windows"
```
however with most current version of az cli installed (MacOS) this will generate an error like:
```
az disk create: 'Copy' is not a valid value for '--upload-type'. Allowed values: Upload, UploadWithSecurityData.
```
