I have 2 nodes with a community subscription .

Sources list are identical :
Code:
deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian stretch pve-enterprise

yet after doing this on both
Code:
apt-get update  &&  apt-get  -y dist-upgrade

one of the nodes is stuck at
Code:
# uname -a
Linux pve10 4.13.16-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 4.13.16-46 (Wed, 4 Apr 2018 10:30:30 +0200) x86_64 GNU/Linux

the others are at
Code:
# uname -a
Linux sys13 4.15.17-3-pve #1 SMP PVE 4.15.17-13 (Mon, 18 Jun 2018 17:15:04 +0200) x86_64 GNU/Linux

note the node stuck at old kernel - /boot has:
Code:
# ls /boot
config-4.13.16-1-pve  initrd.img-4.13.16-1-pve  pve/
efi/                  memtest86+.bin            System.map-4.13.16-1-pve
grub/                 memtest86+_multiboot.bin  vmlinuz-4.13.16-1-pve

Any hints on how to solve?

apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade
dangerous, i would not run dist-upgrade with '-y'

but anyway, what is the output of the update? any hints there?
maybe the kernel is installed but grub selects the older one ?

just saw that you have a wrong line in your apt sources list, the correct one is
Code:
deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-enterprise
