Connect to Oracle Database using one of the connect strings:

Pluggable database: oralinux87/FREEPDB1

We need to set ORACLE environment variables to access the executables. For that we need to Oracle database home location.

It can be identified from Central inventory and its location can be found using /etc/oraInst.loc file.

[root@oralinux87 oracle]# cat /etc/oraInst.loc

inventory_loc=/opt/oracle/oraInventory -----------> Central Inventory location.
