If you mean at the server end, there is nothing you can do about
it. It's their responsibility to keep enough space available to
you.
If you mean a local server, then it's your responsibility.
Either get rid of any quota or get/move it to a larger/another
drive with enough space.

I can't really see the problem - or how it's occurrng. Perhaps if
you provided enough details ...
