Description:
When PB machine disk is full, MySQL server can hang waiting for free spaces and cause the tests fail with errors like 'Lost connection', 'Timeout', etc, which makes it very hard to know if the error is really a server problem or just because of no free disk space.

So I think it would be helpful for distinguishing real server problems from lacking disk space if the free disk space information can be displayed when a test fails.

How to repeat:
This is a feature request.

Suggested fix:
