* Node-level Engine activation between CE and EE is only supported in the same version of Docker Enterprise Engine for Docker.
* Prior versions of Docker CE do not support this feature.
## Notes on patching after running CE to EE Node Activation
Docker recommends replacing the apt or yum repository from CE with the EE one that shows
up on your hub/store account after starting the trial or paid license. This allows apt/yum
upgrade operations to work as expected and keep them current as long as your license is still
valid and has not expired.
> ***NOTE:*** You can use the `docker engine update` command. However, if you continue to use
> the CE packages, the OS package will no longer replace the active daemon binary during apt/yum
> updates, so you are responsible for performing the `docker engine update` operation periodically
> keep your engine up to date.
## Docker Engine 18.09 CE to EE Node Activation Process
