Build failing with "no space left on device"

We use RTC for code development and for promoting code from Development to QA to Production.
Out of the blue, suddenly our builds for moving the pieces around are failing with what appears to be disk space issues in the error messages.  This happens when moving stuff from the local repository workspace into the stream, or when going from the stream to the Dev server or from the stream to the QA server or whenever.  Below is an error message that is typical of what is going on.

None of the machines involved have any actual shortage of disk space in any of the volumes, /tmp included.  The fact that it suddenly started doing the same thing everywhere, when it wasn't doing it through yesterday, leads me to believe it is not actually a disk space issue anywhere but that is the way some issue is interpreted by the RTC system. 

If anybody may know what is going on I'd really appreciate a pointer.  I looked over scores of different questions and answers on here so far and haven't been able to come up with anything solid to go on.

I am not a java maven myself, but I am pretty experienced with 'using' RTC to facilitate the editing and promotion ina fairly involved set of projects.
