You mean you have the report file and don't know how to get it off that system? Red Hat's rescue system should have networking and tools like scp; just copy the file to a remote system. I might be wrong, or you might not get networking to work; perhaps a USB key could help then. Or copy the sosreport to a disk file, then boot your system from a Live CD/DVD/stick and use networking to copy it somewhere.
Or perhaps I misunderstand your question?
Edit: I just found this Red Hat document about sosreports in rescue mode, but without a support contract, I can't read it:

Also where does your OS hang? There might be ways to revive it without the sosreport, e.g. booting into single user mode or booting into the initramfs.
