Dear,
I bought the subscription for all the nodes of each cluster, 9 in total, and now I would like to know if there is a way to upgrade/unupgrade at least the kernel to the enterprise version, or at last stable one.
 
I can't talk on behalf of Proxmox, but I'm pretty sure that any subscription package includes access to the Enterprise repo.
I'm not sure I understood your question properly.
 
if you configure the enterprise repositories, and disable the no-subscription ones, it usually takes a bit for the enterprise ones to catch up version wise. you can of course install and boot the kernel version currently on enterprise, if you want ;)

I think, in the no-subscription repo there are package more recent than in enterprise repo.
I have yet configured the enterprise repo, and disable the two no-subscribe, but now if i simply upgrade the package list, sure there isn't any major version of package, so, how i can see the correct enterprise version of kernel?

thank's
 
you can ask apt. "apt show promox-kernel-6.5 -a" and then see which is the highest that has pve-enterprise as the source. then look at that versions dependencies to figure out the "proxmox-kernel-6.5.X-Y-pve" package to install. or just wait, it normally doesn't take very long to catch up anyway.
 
so i think is yet all right:
apt show proxmox-kernel-6.5 -a

Description: Latest Proxmox Kernel Image
This is a metapackage which will install the latest available
proxmox kernel from the 6.5 series.

uname -a
Linux pve3n2 6.5.11-7-pve #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC PMX 6.5.11-7 (2023-12-05T09:44Z) x86_64 GNU/Linux

dpkg -l | grep proxmox-kernel
ii proxmox-kernel-6.5 6.5.13-1 all Latest Proxmox Kernel Image
ii proxmox-kernel-6.5.11-7-pve-signed 6.5.11-7 amd64 Proxmox Kernel Image (signed)
ii proxmox-kernel-6.5.13-1-pve-signed 6.5.13-1 amd64 Proxmox Kernel Image (signed)
ii proxmox-kernel-helper 8.1.0 all Function for various kernel maintenance tasks.

Consider that i boot with the 6.5.11-7-pve because this morning the server was Unreachable and the only thing for boot up was that kernel, the problem seem to be a network related problem, but is production server so i can-t investigate yet
