+### Stop After Client Disconnect
+
+This example shows how `stop_after_client_disconnect` interacts with
+other stanzas. For the `first` group, after the default 10 second
+[`heartbeat_grace`] window expires and 90 more seconds passes, the
+server will reschedule the allocation. The client will wait 90 seconds
+before sending a stop signal (`SIGTERM`) to the `first-task`
+task. After 15 more seconds because of the task's `kill_timeout`, the
+client will send `SIGKILL`. The `second` group does not have
+`stop_after_client_disconnect`, so the server will reschedule the
+allocation after the 10 second [`heartbeat_grace`] expires. It will
+not be stopped on the client, regardless of how long the client is out
+of touch.
+
+Note that if the server's clocks are not closely synchronized with
+each other, the server may reschedule the group before the client has
+stopped the allocation. Operators should ensure that clock drift
+between servers is as small as possible.
+
+Note also that a group using this feature will be stopped on the
+client if the Nomad server cluster fails, since the client will be
+unable to contact any server in that case. Groups opting in to this
+feature are therefore exposed to an additional runtime dependency and
+potential point of failure.
