Nick, I was intrigued to see the order of operations for the above and wonder if you could tell my why the update of the baseline is suggested after the defragging?
I've been having this discussion elsewhere and it seemed sensible to me to update the baseline before the defrag as that would potentially clean out data which was not included in the current snapshot which would a) reduce the defrag time and b) not leave gaps when the update cleared them out later.
I must be missing something here. Any enlightenment much appreciated
