+ The most important disk monitoring task of a database administrator
+ is to make sure the disk doesn't become full. A filled data disk will
+ not result in data corruption, but it might prevent useful activity
+ from occurring. If the disk holding the WAL files grows full, database
+ server panic and consequent shutdown might occur.
+ </p><p>
+ If you cannot free up additional space on the disk by deleting
+ other things, you can move some of the database files to other file
+ systems by making use of tablespaces. See <a class="xref" href="manage-ag-tablespaces.html" title="23.6. Tablespaces">Section 23.6</a> for more information about that.

+ Some file systems perform badly when they are almost full, so do
+ not wait until the disk is completely full to take action.
+ </p></div><p>
+ If your system supports per-user disk quotas, then the database
+ will naturally be subject to whatever quota is placed on the user
+ the server runs as. Exceeding the quota will have the same bad
+ effects as running out of disk space entirely.
