enabling repos in rhel 7


Hi,
I am a newbie and I am using an unregistered rhel7 iso. When i try to run the yum command it says "There are no enabled repos" . I know that if it is a registered one i can use the rhel subscription manager but since i am using an unregistered one someone please tell me how to enable the repos and perform network installations using yum.
Any information will be helpful,thanks in advanve

Welcome to LQ.

You can migrate to the free version "Redhat CentOS 7",
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide
.. and thus use the CentOS repo´s.

PAY for the REQUIRED support contract with redhat
or
migrate to CentOS 7

as to repos ?????????
last i checked
"repoforge" was NOT!!! up and working yet
"rpmforge" is DEAD
and rpmfusion has no el7 rpm's yet


so

keep the base
update
extra
and the third party elrepo


as to guides
? well
use the redhat documentation for cent
https://access.redhat.com/documentat...erprise_Linux/
or
PORT the centos6 wiki for use on 7
http://wiki.centos.org/
-- some things are the sane
others ARE NOT

PS.
you will notice that there is NO rhel7 to centos7 migration guide
port the instructions for 6 to point to the 7 repos

-- you will have to write your own migration guide

pay for the redhat support
THE REQUIRED!!!!! SUPPORT CONTRACT!!!!!

the third party repos WILL NOT HAVE THE BASE SYSTEM UPDATES
and your system will get
F U B A R 'ED very FAST!!!!
google " fubar " if you do not know it
this will REQUIRE a full clean reinstall to fix


so

install CentOS
or PAY FOR REDHAT
