700.

1. Create a key on A as oracle.  Call it rsa_script_key and use an empty
passphrase.

2. copy the contents of rsa_script_key.pub to the file
<ias-home>/.ssh/authorized_keys on B.

3. Invoke ssh from A as oracle:
$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/rsa_script_key ias@(protected) -t /u01/ias/scripts/test_script.sh

.ssh directories on both ends must have permission of 700 or better or
ssh will fail.  You might need to play with StrictModes in sshd_config.
 I think with 3.0 ans above if your home directory is 755 or better
StrictModes won't complain but this threshold has changed over the years.

When all else fails, check in /var/log/messages for hints.
