How can we find out if the Linux OS installed is 32-bit or64-bit?

Actually uname -i tells you hardware platform but I believe you need to
do uname -rm to get the Linux architecture. 

I vaguely remember Oracle installation pre-req showed a different way to
check architecture but don't recall whether it was for hardware
architecture or OS architecture. Bad brain cells.

Hi,

We have a lot of Redhat Linux servers on various hardware.
How can we find out if the Linux OS installed is 32-bit or 64-bit?

Please suggest,
Thanks & Regards,
