"id" : "<<NSX-v ID>>",
"version" : "<<Current NSX-v Version>>",
"status" : "ACTIVE",
"hostName" : "nsxManager.vrack.vsphere.local",
"domainId" : "dc5318d3-0f98-430a-9f49-2b33bbe97630",
"managementIpAddress" : "10.0.0.9",
"vmName" : "nsxManager",
"vcenterId" : "995a88d4-d6b9-4b97-b6dc-ed72cce23976"

 3. API to update NSX-v hot patch version: 6.4.14-20609341

root@sddc-manager [ /home/vcf ]# curl -X PATCH
'localhost/inventory/entities/<<NSX-v ID>>' -d '{"version":"6.4.14-20609341",
"type":"NSXMANAGER"}' -H 'Content-Type:application/json'

 4. Verify the NSX-V Version

root@sddc-manager [ /home/vcf ]# curl localhost/inventory/nsxmanagers | json_pp
[
{
"managementIpAddress" : "10.0.0.9",
"id" : "82cd67f9-77d5-4ff6-a3b3-fa4415492160",
"opaqueBlob" : "...",
"status" : "ACTIVE",
"vmName" : "nsxManager",
"hostName" : "nsxManager.vrack.vsphere.local",
"version" : "6.4.14-20609341",
"vcenterId" : "995a88d4-d6b9-4b97-b6dc-ed72cce23976"
