With judicious use of transaction suspension and resumable timeout
periods, one can generally avoid such incidents.  Even without this
capability, given the choice of having a transaction fail because of an
out-of-space condition (a) in a tablespace consisting of non-AUTOEXTEND
datafile(s), or (b) in the filesystem in which such files live, I'd
choose the former every time, since in general it's easier to recover
from the first than the second.

So you'd rather have a business transaction/batch process fail?  

Unfortunately, I can't answer your question.  However, the situation you
describe perfectly illustrates my loathing for using AUTOEXTEND ...
