    Update on status. Tried to move forward using the removeallrpms.sh script since the was new machine. This run as expected, however, attempting to install_dnf.sh returned errors that /usr/opt/freeware/bin/rpm: was missing. Attempted manual install from the dnf file location in /tmp this also failed.

    Reloading OS to see if new dnf install will work as expected.

    There is an issue and we are working on a solution. If in future you see this issue again then try to rebuild rpmdb and see if that resolves you issue.
    # rpmdb --rebuilddb​
