Name

ST_SetBandIndex — Update the external band number of an out-db band

Synopsis

raster ST_SetBandIndex(raster rast, integer band, integer outdbindex, boolean force=false);

Description

Updates an out-db band's external band number. This does not touch the external raster file associated with the out-db band

[Note]

If force is set to true, no tests are done to ensure compatibility (e.g. alignment, pixel support) between the external raster file and the PostGIS raster. This mode is intended for where bands are moved around in the external raster file.

[Note]

Internally, this method replaces the PostGIS raster's band at index band with a new band instead of updating the existing path information.
