I would like to subscribe to the following Oracle yum repository so I can install virtual box guest additions packages.

https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/developer/x86_64/index.html

Where can I find the .repo file URL in order for me to add this to my Oracle Linux subscription list?

Edit: I am already subscribed to the Oracle public yum repo

Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything.

On the same web server there is a page which describe very well the process.

To configure CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Scientific Linux with
Oracle Linux yum server:

To convert your system to Oracle Linux, see these instructions for switching from CentOS. To install individual packages from Oracle
Linux yum server, begin by importing the Oracle Linux GPG key based on
these instructions. Then, download and copy the appropriate yum
configuration file in place, by running the following commands as
root:

Oracle Linux 7



# cd /etc/yum.repos.d

# wget https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol7.repo

Oracle Linux 7 for ARM (aarch64)



# cd /etc/yum.repos.d

# wget https://yum.oracle.com/aarch64/public-yum-ol7.repo

Oracle Linux 6



# cd /etc/yum.repos.d

# wget https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol6.repo

Oracle Linux 5



# cd /etc/yum.repos.d

# wget https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo

Oracle Linux 4, Update 6 or Newer

# cd /etc/yum.repos.d

# mv Oracle-Base.repo Oracle-Base.repo.disabled

# wget https://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el4.repo

By default, the latest repository is enabled. If you want to change the default, you can enable an alternative repository by
editing the yum configuration file.
Open the yum configuration file in a text editor
Locate the section in the file for the repository want to enable, e.g. [public_ol6_addons]
Change enabled=0 to enabled=1

I fixed this by adding the entry manually into the yum.conf file.
