Issue/Introduction
Local manager config onboarding is failing due to the presence of the entity TRACEFLOW_STATUS on the local manager. This entity is not supported for importing to GM. On customer setup, this entity should be deleted before config import to avoid the same failure again. The following error can be seen in the proton/nsxapi.logs:

Environment
Any version before NSX 4.2.1
Cause
Traceflow is a site specific feature. It does not make sense to onboard the previous state of the LM system to GM.
Resolution
The issue is fixed in the following versions:
NSX 4.2.1
In this version, this entity will be added to the skip list for config import to avoid failure.
Workaround:
Users should clean up the traceflow config manually before importing.
Use the following API to retrieve the traceflow UUID:
GET https://<nsx-mgr>/policy/api/v1/infra/traceflows
Use the following API call to clean up the traceflow config:
DELETE https://<nsx-mgr>/policy/api/v1/infra/traceflows/{traceflow-id}
Once there are no traceflow configs, you can then import the local manager to the global manager.
