It all depends on what filesystem ran out of disk space.  You need to
ssh into the Perforce server and see if you ran out of disk space on the
Perforce database (db.* files), the versioned files (directories under the
Perforce root), or the log, or the running journal.   If you have
checkpoints and numbered journals, these may be the easiest to temporarily move
elsewhere.  If you have versioned files, you can use symbolic links to
place the files on a network file system.  Once Perforce has enough
space to work with, the last checkin can be removed with
p4 files //<depot>/<dir>/...@<changelist>,@<changelist>
p4 obliterate
//<depot>/<dir>/...@<changelist>,@<changelist>
p4 obliterate -y
//<depot>/<dir>/...@<changelist>,@<changelist>
Make sure you have a solid backup before running the "p4 obliterate"
command.
