The vrf Mgmt-vrf is fixed attached to the management interface gi0/0 (e.g.) ; it can not be changed , perhaps the licensing servers can be reached through other network-paths and or vlans (?)

Hi,
No need to worry about any VRFs. Just create an SVI with an IP for one of the vlans you have already created and make that vlan/IP routable to the Internet.
example for vl311
Interface vlan 311
ip address: xx.x.x.x mask y.y.y.y
no shut
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 (next-hop IP)
Make sure the IP you assign is reachable to and from the Internet. Once that is done, you can now work on activiting the license.
