To handle the case during copy when: No space left on device

Code:

 print "After create SubDir routine.";
                  createSubDirs($fileDir);
                        my $from = $ORACLE_HOME.$dirSep.$file;
                        my $to = $bootstrapDir.$dirSep.$fileDir;
                        if ($isWindows)  {
                           copy($from, $to);
                        } else {                        
                          system("cp -rf $from $to");                           
                        }
                        print "\nCopied file $from to $to\n";

In the above code I wanted to handle the case that during copy when: No space left on device it should not keep listing error for every file to the user that: " No space left on device" either it should just gracefully come out saying the "Process Failed."

then I manipulated the code like:

Code:

             else {         
                          system("cp -rf $from $to 2>/dev/null");
                           if ($? ne 0){
                             print "Process failed."
                           }

but it seems the return code is still returning code as 0 and I still could not trap the error.

Please suggest.

The code I mentioned is the perl code .. I just missed to mention that.
