Hi Maxim,

Thanks for pointers!

I knew about similar thing: ksplice

http://www.ksplice.com/

for about 7 years or so. I was offered that at discounted price (one of
brilliant programmers at that company is relative of our Center Director).
I decided against that. It is similar thing to why I do not use RedHat
(even though our university maintains license), but use CentOS instead.
More direct solution (i.e. switching servers to system which I do not have
to schedule reboot often; FreeBSD would be one of the choices) was the
decision for servers. But workstations stay CentOS (CentOS 7 from now on).
The system is great for the purpose!

Thanks to everybody for all your input: it is really instructive!
