PUT Shape¶
Description¶
Modifies the dimensions of a dataset. Dimensions can only be changed if the dataset was initially created with that dimension as extensible - i.e. the maxdims value for that dimension is larger than the initial dimension size (or maxdims set to 0).
Note: Dimensions can only be made larger, they can not be reduced.
