As RudiC pointed out you can check for an interactive shell before running the menu:

eg:

Code:
if [[ $- == *i* ]]
then
    menu code here
fi

This should upset the DBAs too much as they will still get the menu on an interactive login.

Otherwise you could try piping /dev/null to the sudo command:

Code:
ssh remotehost "sudo -i -u oracle script.bash </dev/null"

in the hope the menu will close if it encounters EOF

menu_userptr

menu_userptr(3X)														  menu_userptr(3X)

NAME

       menu_userptr - associate application data with a menu item

SYNOPSIS

       #include <menu.h>
       int set_menu_userptr(MENU *menu, void *userptr);
       void *menu_userptr(const MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION

       Every  menu  and  every	menu  item has a field that can be used to hold application-specific data (that is, the menu-driver code leaves it
       alone).	These functions get and set the menu user pointer field.

RETURN VALUE

       Except for menu_userptr (which returns NULL on error), each function returns one of the following:

       E_OK The routine succeeded.

       E_SYSTEM_ERROR
	    System error occurred (see errno).

SEE ALSO

       curses(3X), menu(3X).

NOTES

       The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.

PORTABILITY

       These routines emulate the System V menu library.  They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.

       The user pointer should be a void pointer.  We leave it as a char pointer for SVr4 compatibility.

AUTHORS

       Juergen Pfeifer.  Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by Eric S. Raymond.
