Link from the Oracle website:

This should work after downloading it

# exec as root
yum install -y jdk-8u45-linux-x64.rpm
alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/default/bin/java 99999
alternatives --auto java

In the end I just removed the java7 instance and installed java8 directly through yum.
