A malfunction that shut down all of Toyota Motor's assembly plants in Japan for about a day last week occurred because some servers used to process parts orders became unavailable after maintenance procedures, the company said.
I’m sending this to my boss to remind him why monitoring disk space is vital.
$100 says there is a series of emails sent by a sysadmin/DBA over the past couple months warning about this issue in explicit detail and its increasing urgency, that have been ignored.
The person sending the emails will still get chewed out because they failed to make the higher ups realise this is a real problem.

my $100 goes to them storing so much of their customers’ personal data on the servers
While that story is shitty I doubt the manufacturing control DB and customer data DB are anywhere near each other.
