umask is not functioning

I tried to change the umask to 022 (now it is 027) and it is not functioning.
Every time I get back to the server and I typed umask, it shows me the 027.

I followed this steps as the oracle user:

shutdown the orale listener.
umask 022
start the oracle listener.

What's not functioning?

What shell does oracle have?

Depending on the shell, it may need to go into .bash_profile or similar.

Oracle client umask is working - evidence with touch test and the privilege was 644.

Another client in the Os was not working but the user is not part of the dba group.
