Specifies whether or not the characteristics of a physical terminal are determined from the bind image returned to IBM Session Manager at sign-on time.
This common end-user parameter is applicable to these control statements: SYSTEM (see SYSTEM statement), PROFILE (see PROFILE statement), USER (see USER statement), and TERMINAL (see TERMINAL statement).
When REBIND=Yes, IBM Session Manager attempts to create a session with the terminal reflecting the terminal's characteristics, regardless of any logmode entry name supplied at sign-on.
When REBIND=No, IBM Session Manager does not attempt to alter the bind parameters specified in the logmode entry supplied with the sign-on request. REBIND=No is usually specified for terminals and PCs which do not completely emulate the IBM equivalent.
Further information on the effects of using REBIND may be found in the section 'Logmode entry selection and REBIND implications' in the chapter 'Setting up applications' of the Installation and Customization manual.
