We patch all our systems twice a year, and those are the only times we reboot servers. Other than that, break/fixes are the only times the servers go down.
If we do overlook a server during a particular patch cycle, then we experience longer patching duration for the same server at our next patch cycle, and that's never fun

CHCAT(8) User Commands CHCAT(8) NAME
chcat - change file SELinux security category SYNOPSIS
chcat category file... chcat -l category user... chcat [[+|-]category...] file... chcat -l [[+|-]category...] user... chcat [-d] file... chcat -l [-d] user... chcat -L [ -l ] [ user ... ] DESCRIPTION
Change/Remove the security category for each file or user. Use +/- to add/remove categories from a file or user.

This tells the command that you have finished entering options and are now specifying a category name instead. -d delete the category from each FILE/USER. -L list available categories. -l Tells chcat to operate on users instead of files.
