If you have auditing enabled and set to DB, users will not be able to
login to the database as they will not be able to write to the sys.aud$
table.

Subject: 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.
