what happens when a _bulk_update fails due to disk quota or no more space on the disk ?

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure what happend when I do a _bulk_update on a
couchdb node and while saving docs the disk quota is reached or
storage is full. Will it send back the list of unsaved docs in an
"atomic" model ?

The doc says :

non-atomic - This is the default behavior. Some documents may
successfully be saved and some may not. The response will tell the
application which documents were saved or not. In the case of a power
failure, when the database restarts some may have been saved and some
not.

But it's pretty vague. What is the message we get when docs where
unsaved ? Is there any special member like for conflicts ?
