+
+.. method:: sh.disableAutoSplit()
+
+   .. versionadded:: 3.4
+
+   Disables the autosplit flag in the :data:`config.settings`
+   collection. When auto-splitting is enabled for a sharded cluster,
+   MongoDB automatically splits chunks based on the shard key values
+   the chunk represents to keep the chunks from growing too large.
+   
+   Auto-splitting is enabled by default. For more
+   information on chunk splits, see :ref:`sharding-chunk-splits`.
+
+   .. important::
+
+      You can only run :method:`sh.enableAutoSplit()` from a
+      :binary:`~bin.mongo` shell connected to a :binary:`~bin.mongos`
+      instance. :method:`sh.enableAutoSplit()` errors if run on a
+      :binary:`~bin.mongod` instance.
