Is it possible to Automate the Patching of a VM Linux servers(RHEL/SLES) with Mongodb on BigFix

Steps on patching the db server
1.Stop DB
2.Stop server
3.Take a snapshot
4.Start server
5.Stop DB
6.Patch server
7.Re-boot server

Server Automation (a feature of BigFix Lifecycle) can help with this type of patching, since it orchestrates activities among multiple systems.

Ok, thank you. I guess, the challenge on Bigfix Automation is taking on the VM snapshot after stopping the DB and server.
