What happens to Oracle when sys.aud$ table or Oracle OS Audit file reaches storage capacity?

I am writing an Oracle Security Test plan.  One of the controls requires Oracle 
to stop processing transactions if the Oracle OS Audit files or the sys.aud$ 
table reaches storage capacity.  I cannot find any documentation that lets me 
know what happens to Oracle when this occurs.  Does Oracle react the same way 
as when the Archive Log area reaches storage capacity?  The version of Oracle 
that I am using is 11.2.0.1 on Linux x86-64.
