Even better, cron job every 5 mins and if total remaining space falls to 5% auto delete the file and send a message to sys admin

Sends a message and gets the services ready for potential shutdown. Or implements a rate limit to keep the service available but degraded.

Also, if space starts decreasing much more rapidly than normal.

At that point just set the limit a few gig higher and don't have the decoy file at all
