We experienced a similar problem with a sun4c running Sunos 4.1.2 and
afs 3.1a, and with it's cache in a dedicated partition. The overflow
occurred several times when a safety margin of ca. 10%
was left between the cache size and total available space.
We raised the margin to 15% and the problem has not yet recurred.
