[OpenAFS] What's the limit on volume size?

[Charles Karney]

[Forgive the Transarc AFS question here, but I suspect this applies to
OpenAFS too and I dispair of getting anyone from IBM to do more and read
back the documentation to me.]

Config

    Server:
	Linux 2.2.16
	Transarc AFS 3.6 patch 2 (base config afs3.6 2.18).
    Clients:
	Linux/SGI/NT
	Transarc and OpenAFS

The Release notes for Transarc AFS 3.6 state

    "AFS supports a maximum volume size of 8 GB"

This was causing me some inconvenience so before I started splitting my
data between multiple volumes, I thought I would try ignoring this
limitation.  As far as I can tell, nothing bad is happening -- no errors,
no lost files.  Here's the current status:

Volume Name                   Quota      Used %Used   Partition
dgg.catqp3.catqp3t1        no limit   9727449    0%         97%

So is there a limit?  If this is, what is the limit and how does it
manifest itself?

Thanks.
