Downloading Oracle Linux

Sergio-OracleJul 8 2015 — edited Oct 18 2021

Oracle Linux can be freely downloaded and distributed. Oracle provides both ISO images of the installation media as well as individual RPM packages (incl. errata and updates) via the Oracle Linux Yum Server. Oracle Linux Vagrant Boxes are available here

The primary and official resource for getting Oracle Linux (and Oracle VM Server) ISO images is the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud (formerly known as E-Delivery).

Oracle Linux is also listed on DistroWatch and LQ ISO.

Additionally, the ISO images are available for direct download from the following mirror sites:

Hello,

Edited to state that we are no longer adding mirror locations as the ISOs are now available via Akamai CDN.

You can send me a message and we can discuss it directly. We're only looking for new mirrors in locations we don't already have a mirror, so I'll need to know where your mirror will be based.

We are in Viet Nam. Can you tell me how much disk space it require to become your mirror ? Thanks you.

Currently, it requires about 500GB.

Hi, we are not looking for additional mirrors at this time. Thanks for your interest, though!

Many thanks for this information.

My question: Is there also a list of ISO checksums (md5/sha) somewhere available?

Many thanks for this information.

I checked some of the URLs and SHA-1/256 info is there as in the example below.

Except for OL 7.7 which appears missing.

What are you trying to download?

I was downloading OL7.7 of course, but honestly not checking the other ISOs. But anyway ... thanks for your help.

Below are the checksums for the OL 7.7 download from the Oracle Delivery Cloud. Chances are they apply.

Btw, you only need to download 339-01.iso which is bootable and contains the installation software.

Many thanks once more. Checksum was matching with my download from a public mirror.

I'll check to see why the checksum files are not up on the mirrors.

um... i want to know, how many size is the oracle linux repo?

ladar

The v7 u9 and the v8 u3 ISOs don't appear to be on any of the mirror sites. My guess is they were never pushed to the server the various mirrors rsync with. Can anyone fix this? The official download server is soooo slow. Thanks.

ladar

Correction. The official download site is slow over HTTPS but reasonably fast over HTTP. It's a difference of 15 megabits vs 500 megabits.
I tested that via a gigabit link, and via a 10 gigabit link from different location and got the same result.

Sergio-Oracle

@ladar we will take a look. have you tried this location?
https://yum.oracle.com/oracle-linux-isos.html

ladar

@sergio-oracle1 yes, that is official download site I mentioned above, which is incredibly slow via HTTPS, but reasonably fast via HTTP.

Sergio-Oracle

@ladar Looks like the 7.9 and 8.3 ISOs propagated to the various mirrors now.

ladar

@sergio-oracle1 thanks for the update. I see the 7u9 ISO on my favorite mirror, but I still don't see the 8u3 ISO. I'll update my build scripts for v7, and check again in a day or so regarding v8.

User_LJZDY

Hello. Looks like HEAnet mirror does not contain oracle linux isos.

Sergio-Oracle

They used to mirror OL. I recommend you write them and suggest they add it back.
In addition to HTTP, we also serve FTP and rsync. If there's anything you think could benefit from being mirrored on ftp.heanet.ie, which has 10 Gigabit connectivity to the backbone in our National Network, please mail mirrors@heanet.ie

ladar

@Sergio-Oracle can you reach out to me? I'm setting up a public mirror server, and would like to add the Oracle Linux ISOs, and Yum repos.
It seems I don't have a good enough reputation on this platform to send you a private message, and I don't know your email address.
Thanks.

Sergio-Oracle

@ladar I've sent you a PM. Let me know if that didn't work.

User_3WO3S

I want to make a mirror out of Turkey. I'm waiting for your help. I contacted.
