What happens at the moment is that on create-user, the initial inventory is also populated.  However, if on login 
OpenSim does not find this inventory present, then it will do an initial inventory setup anyway.

So in theory you should be able to simply reuse your existing user database - fresh blank inventory structures will be 
created when a user first logs in.

No
