+ <para>
+ In brief it specifies a number, which causes <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>not to grant an oplock even when requested if the
+ approximate number of clients contending for an oplock on the same file goes over this
+ limit. This causes <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> to behave in a similar
+ way to Windows NT.
