Judging from the data you presented here, I see no reason why it should
occur.

But there are a few details missing:
o Check that the data file is set to unrestricted growth. If the file
set to a max of 4007 MB, it can autogrow 10% from 3.91 GB.
o Check the error message for which database the error occurs in. The
problem could be with tempdb.

Thanks for your reply. I didn't get this point at the time of fixing .
I added another data file and that is working perfectly without any
error. And I made that in group.
Thangs and Regards
