This is what I got when run YUM command:

[root@root]# yum
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

No module named rpm

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.7.10 (default, Jun 22 2016, 05:57:59) [C]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:

Hi Victor,

I hope you are on AIX 7.1/7.2 and not on AIX 7.3.

Please check if you have this correct link.
/usr/opt/freeware/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rpm/_rpm.so -> /usr/opt/rpm/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rpm/_rpm.so
