ORA-09945: Unable to initialize the audit trail file

I went to see audit location which has enough space.
Filesystem    GB blocks      Free %Used    Iused %Iused Mounted on
/dev/var_opt_audit      6.00      4.75   21%   225253    16% /var/opt/oracle/audit
I am not sure what the issue is and I don’t see DB process.
