Description
Dear Team,
I have one question relating to Dsc node reports for linux virtual machines.
Scenario: I have two virtual machines created on Azure Portal. And I want to install Nodejs using automation account and DSC.
Problem: When I take a look into dsc node reports for the nodes, there is no initial state listed like windows. The list always contains reports with consistency compliant state. Could you guys please explain to me why such situation happens?
My configuration content:

Node reports for linux machine:

Node reports for windows:
