Sorting the .db file

Sorting the .db file
Is there any problem with sorting the .db file at the OS level? I'm referring to setting up a cron job that would sort a file like this:

sort /path/events.db > /path/events.db.sorted
mv /path/events.db.sorted /path/events.db

Will this mess up any pointers or indexes that DBMan might be using? Assume sorting is done during off hours with no contention for database.
