+<description>
+ <para>This option allows you to put an upper limit
+ on the apparent size of disks. If you set this option to 100
+ then all shares will appear to be not larger than 100 MB in
+ size.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that this option does not limit the amount of
+ data you can put on the disk. In the above case you could still
+ store much more than 100 MB on the disk, but if a client ever asks
+ for the amount of free disk space or the total disk size then the
+ result will be bounded by the amount specified in <parameter moreinfo="none">max
+ disk size</parameter>.</para>
+
+ <para>This option is primarily useful to work around bugs
+ in some pieces of software that can't handle very large disks,
+ particularly disks over 1GB in size.</para>
+
+ <para>A <parameter moreinfo="none">max disk size</parameter> of 0 means no limit.</para>
