Dear, There is also some additionnal considerations to set up VPC peer keep-alive with a SVI: Please find below recommandations from CISCO : In  an emulated switch setup, inband keepalive does not work. The following  steps are recommended for peer keepalive over SVI when a switch is in  FabricPath mode: – Use a dedicated front panel port as a vPC+ keepalive. The port should be in CE mode. – Use a dedicated VLAN to carry the keepalive interface. The VLAN should be CE VLAN. – Add  the management keyword to the corresponding SVI so that the failure of a  Layer 3 module will not bring down the SVI interface. – Enter the dual-active exclude interface-vlan keepalive-vlan command to prevent the SVI from going down on the secondary when a peer-link goes down The "management" keyword have to be applied on the vlan interface (with dedicated VLAN), and  "dual-active" command.... Because else interface VLAN is considered as a common forwarding interface.
