Yes, I have server monitoring software in place. It warns me via email when the server breaks certain thresholds. I.e. disk space, process count, zombie count, user count, load average, etc.
Good guy :)
This happened because we had someone uploading us a linux distro DVD to our upload space on that server. I have remedied this problem by letting our users know to use one of our internal servers, not the web server to upload large files such as this.
The usual super-catastrophic events, it seems... (which probably could have been avoided here by having a separate partition or quota for the upload directory, but some critical things to be protected always tend to escape...)
