You don’t need to rebuild LFs. The system will take care to maintain them!

I have logical files that haven’t been rebuild in like 5 to 10 years. I figured they should be rebuilt

If you reorganize a physical file the logical file is not rebuilt, but the access paths will be updated to reflect the new organization of the physical. (if maintenance is *IMMED)….
