I just tested on my maintenance partition. It gets rebuilt but it's a
lot smaller:

[F:\DMISL\BIN]dir
10-03-01 12:38p 3584 0 sldb.dmi
9-29-01 9:23a 74752 0 sldb.dmi-old

You can open the sldb.dmi file in epm. The "old" version shows what
apparently is a database of status and error handling messages. The
"rebuilt" version doesn't have any of that.

Further, the sldb.dmi file from both my production and maintenance
partitions (G: and F:) have the identical file length of 74752, so it
probably is supposed to be that length and not the shorter rebuilt 3584
length.

So you're right, it gets rebuilt. But I don't think you want to do
that. :))
