Comment (by karsten):
I'd say let's add a warning if there's not much space left on the device
at the beginning of a run (less than 200M?). But let's not make CollecTor
behave differently when it finds that it's low on disk space. If we have
such warnings in place (the Nagios notification and the new low-on-disk-
space warning), we should assume that operators are smart enough to do the
right thing. The recent problems only happened, because we don't have any
notifications at all. But acting differently in case of low disk space
would be like a car on reserve that doesn't let you drive faster than 100
km/h or not in opposite direction of a nearby gas station. Oh, I would
hate a car that thinks it's smarter than I, even if it is.
