You can download an ISO and boot from it (or a disc burned from it), and
"upgrade an existing Red Hat installation".

This will take you to the specific point release, as released by Red Hat
at the time the specific point release was put out.

This does, of course, require some downtime for the systems in question,
but then they'd still require some downtime when you rebooted for the
kernel upgrade.
