The cleanest approach will be to remove all the existing RPMs and then install YUM from AIX toolbox and install required RPMs.
Note:
We have seen some of the older RPMs may interfere with files provided by rpm.rte and while removing them can leave system in inconsistent state.
To rectify this you can install rpm.rte again after removing all RPMs.
Though as part of yum installation rpm.rte is installed if your rpm.rte is at older level than needed by yum.
But our recommendation is reinstall rpm.rte after removing of all RPMs from system that will give you clean environment for YUM.

Hello
