## Title

    [LangSmith self-hosted] ClickHouse 'DB::Exception: Cannot reserve 1.00 MiB, not enough space: While executing WaitForAsyncInsert. (NOT_ENOUGH_SPACE)' — trace ingestion fails when the ClickHouse volum…

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): ClickHouse out of disk space.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Limitations:
    - Consider TTL/retention settings to control growth (not covered by this page).
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://github.com/langchain-ai/docs/blob/main/src/langsmith/troubleshooting.mdx (official_docs, unknown, official_recommended_action): LangSmith self-host troubleshooting: NOT_ENOUGH_SPACE means ClickHouse is out of disk; step-by-step PVC expansion (allowVolumeExpansion, patch PVC, update helm size, orphan-delete statefulset, re-apply) and Docker volume guidance.
    
    Search phrasings: langsmith clickhouse NOT_ENOUGH_SPACE; langsmith self hosted traces not saving disk full; Cannot reserve 1.00 MiB not enough space WaitForAsyncInsert
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
