Do I need to run this part or is there a different way to initially install the plugins? I don't even really know what this means.

@nickanderson82, I don't think there's another way to install plugins on Core. Unless you want to try XI where plugins can be installed via the web interface.
And it looks like you already have the failing package installed. Or you could try uninstalling rs-epel-release-1.0-2.rs.el7.4.eus.noarch in order to continue with the installation. Also, are you using a registered copy of RHEL? I've seen problems where packages would install incorrectly/fail because the system wasn't registered with the key.

I ended up just skipping this part and everything worked out fine. You can close this post.

@nickanderson82 , Sounds good! Closing the topic.
