Does SSM Patch Manager support automated snapthot creation before Patches will be installed?

Question

We plan to use the Patch Manager in automatic way to install OS patches (SLES). 
Normally  before wie start to patch a system we create first a Snapshoot of the root volume and than we start patching. 
I can't find any Information about that in context of the SSM Patch Manager to create a snapshot of the node before patching started.

Accepted Answer
