• Panorama with VMware NSX Plugin
• NSX-T East-West Operation Centric Deployment
• Dynamic Address and Address Group sync use-case

1. The "<Service-Profile>" mentioned in the log as a stale entry needs to be removed on the NSX-T Manager. In this case it is under "Security > Network Introspection > Service Profiles".
2. After this Service Profile is deleted, it should auto-populate from the Panorama side, corresponding to the Zones created with vwire on the corresponding Template.
