What happens if some nefarious user fills my rootdbspace? I'm thinking of the case in which a user, with no connection privileges to any database, nevertheless creates a new database in the default dbspace, rootdbs, then procedes to create a table and fill it until the chunk is at 100% capacity. What happens to the instance then?
