interface ,

Yeah, i know about that. like using a loopback in the Default Vrf. But am
trying to see if the management interface can still be used will my present
setup.

however I believe to better to use the management interface for the management
and source my ntp, syslog, Tacacs , snmp out of the management VRF.

My management interface is not connected to a management network. my ntp,
syslog, tacacs, snmp, are in a different vlan. i believe to use the management
interface, routing has to occur. A default gateway has to be configured for
the Management Vrf. the problem is pointing the default route to other Vrf
(Default Vrf in my case).
