While I do not know of any way to exclude specific files, you can
defragment files on a file by file basis using the 'migrate' command.
The 'migrate' command attempts to allocate new storage from contiguous
space.
This will work even on domains with only 1 volume in the domain.
The limitation is that if there is not enough contiguous space to
effectivily defragment the file, then the 'migrate' command will not be
able to create any. The 'defragment' command can move files to create
contiguous free space, so it can be more effective in defragmenting
files.
----
If you have customer requirements for the 'defragment' utility to
provide explicit "defragment this set of files" or to explicitly "DO
NOT touch this set of files" or treat these files a "Hot" files and
postition them for optimum performance, or even to just defragment the
free space, please enter a QAR and/or contact a product manager.
