Cannot update repos, Redhat Noob, please help.

Latest response

Hello, firstly i'm not sure if this is even the right place to ask for help so i apologize if it is not.
I have been tasked with bringing new life to some old servers for my employers. I have a (very) small degree of experience using Manjaro on my PC at home but i have never really done anything with red hat or servers so i am learning as i go currently.

Everything has been progressing smoothly so far, all hardware seems to be operational and i have installed the OS ( rhel 7.9 ). The company does hold a red hat license however as more qualified personnel are trying to find the company key/ credentials for me i am just using a free 60 day trial to see if i can get everything running or if we will need to look for another OS.
When using commands such as "sudo yum update" or "sudo yum install snapd" i get an error like this:
[root@localhost jlorenz]# sudo yum update
Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager
epel/x86_64/metalink | 3.4 kB 00:00:00

To address this issue please refer to the below knowledge base article

https://access.redhat.com/articles/1320623

If above article doesn't help to resolve this issue please open a ticket with Red Hat Support.

One of the configured repositories failed (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Server - Update Services for SAP Solutions - Optional (RPMs)),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
    upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
    distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
    packages for the previous distribution release still work).

 3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
        yum --disablerepo=rhel-7-server-e4s-optional-rpms ...

 4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
    will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
    again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:

        yum-config-manager --disable rhel-7-server-e4s-optional-rpms
    or
        subscription-manager repos --disable=rhel-7-server-e4s-optional-rpms

 5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
    Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
    so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
    slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
    compromise:

        yum-config-manager --save --setopt=rhel-7-server-e4s-optional-rpms.skip_if_unavailable=true

failure: repodata/repomd.xml from rhel-7-server-e4s-optional-rpms: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
https://cdn.redhat.com/content/e4s/rhel/server/7/7Server/x86_64/optional/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 404 - Not Found

I have tried all fixes mentioned in the error report however none work. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
