   * Cloud Network Automation license on the Grid Master and Grid Master Candidate. You cannot apply the CNA license on a Grid Member. So long as the GM and GMC appliances are licensed with CNA, you can have any member run the discovery tasks. In fact, you could get away with just licensing the GM. If you only licence the GMC, you will not get the Cloud Tab in the GUI nor will you be able to update NIOS with vDiscovery. If you only licence the GM, you will loose the Cloud tab when (if) you promote the GMC to GM. Testing shows that you "can" install a CNA licence on a non-GM, non-GMC member. However, you don't need to because only the GM "has" to have the license and only the GMC's "should" have the licence in addition to the GM.   * Cloud Network Automation license on the Grid Master and Grid Master Candidate.

However, the data already pulled still exists on the Grid and can be see in the IPAM metadata. When you promote the original GM back, the Cloud tab becomes visible again.
   * Cloud Platform license on the Cloud Platform Appliances. The license you install on the Grid Master enables the Cloud user interface functions in Grid Manager and Tenant permissions.   * Cloud Platform license on the Cloud Platform Appliances.
