Expected behaviour

Sync stops with a relevant error

Actual behaviour

User didn't have image previews, so they proceeded to mark 'always keep on this device' for every directory. Them having more files than space available on the disk, the disk filled up. I got a call for 'gmail is not opening', disk had 0B free.

On the server side, I figured out some large directories, that would likely be not needed. Unchecking the 'Always keep on this device' on the 2, and afterwards, again after a reboot 'Free up space' on the folders. The directories were not deflated, no error is reported.

I'm left with:
a) delete the files via client, files are deleted on the server, then restore files on server (not reasonable here)
b) Remove the sync connection, and re-add it. Takes about 6h+ per 100G, most files are ~4-8MiB. Massive downtime.

Client configuration

@claell is there free space monitoring? iirc there was? can the limit be bypassed with multiple transfers?

on explorer, you can't copy a 2G file, if the destination doesn't have the space (1.5G available), but you can start the copy of 2 1G files at the same time; the same could be happening with VFS adding thousands of files one-by-one

otherwise, gonna let it go stale
