This is a desaster waiting to happen. I'd say never let a database get
out of disk space. Rather implement soft limits like regular cron jobs
and make them pay for overusage.
Also note that DB size on disk and amount of data stored in DB might be
a lot different because of bloating issues, indices etc.
Tino..oO(But LVM/tablespace should work.)
