# SnaPatch

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/466842/SnaPatch

> SnaPatch is a patch management add-on for Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager designed to automate the creation of virtual machine snapshots before deploying Windows updates. It provides IT administrators with a recovery point to address potential patch failures, helping to mitigate risks during system updates. It is suitable for organizations that rely on virtual infrastructure, particularly in environments where system stability and minimal downtime are essential.

The software includes snapshot management features, allowing administrators to schedule pre-patch snapshots and manage deployment timing through customizable maintenance windows. It supports VMware ESX and Microsoft Hyper-V environments and offers compliance monitoring to identify missing updates by category, such as security, critical, and service packs. Automated snapshot deletion based on retention policies and configurable email notifications help keep administrators informed throughout the process.

SnaPatch does not require agents on target servers, simplifying implementation and minimizing disruption to existing systems. Administrators can view collections and members within the interface, distinguish between physical and virtual machines, and create software update groups without accessing the Configuration Manager console. The dashboard provides real-time task status updates, and pre- and post-script functionality allows for customization of the patching workflow. While the system supports patch deployment to physical servers, snapshot functionality is limited to virtual machines.
