Thanks for that. Trouble is, there will definitely be an Oracle account on the host but there may be no Oracle SW installed.
In the cases where the SW is installed, more than likely there will multiple SW installations and the 'locate' cmd will return many records. I'd need to know which is the latest valid installation and an actual RDBMS or client installation ... there could also be some Oracle SW plugin entries.
I'm only interested in checking the local host (it's part of a script that gets rolled out there), so I won't be looping through a server list. I can use the find command mentioned earlier and just check the timestamps of the multiple sqlplus binaries. Was just hoping there was a more elegant way to do it.

jifty::dbi::handle::oracle
Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm)
NAME
Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle - An oracle specific Handle object
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle that compensates for some of the idiosyncrasies of Oracle.
METHODS
connect PARAMHASH: Driver, Database, Host, User, Password
Takes a paramhash and connects to your DBI datasource.
database_version
Returns value of ORA_OCI constant, see "Constants" in DBD::Oracle.
insert
Takes a table name as the first argument and assumes that the rest of the arguments are an array of key-value pairs to be inserted.
build_dsn PARAMHASH
Takes a bunch of parameters:
Required: Driver, Database or Host/SID, Optional: Port and RequireSSL
Builds a dsn suitable for an Oracle DBI connection
blob_params column_NAME column_type
Returns a hash ref for the bind_param call to identify BLOB types used by the current database for a particular column type. The current
Oracle implementation only supports ORA_CLOB types(112).
apply_limits STATEMENTREF ROWS_PER_PAGE FIRST_ROW
takes an SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return ROWS_PER_PAGE starting with FIRST_ROW;
distinct_query STATEMENTREF
takes an incomplete SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return a DISTINCT result set.
