Hi Suresh,

you can also use the below commands

#esxtop (only root privileges can run the command, press respective character to get the specific info after running the esxtop)
options:
c CPU, m memory, d disk adapter, u disk device, v disk vm, n network, i
interrupts. commands: h help, q quit, f add fields, o order, s set refresh delay (default 5 secs,min 2), space refesh now, W save as default, V only VMs, 2 row down, 8 up, 4 hide, 6 expand

also you can run 'resxtop' from vMA

these commands can run on ESX 4.x as well

Regards,
Jagadish
PS do not forget to assign the points

Suresh,

extop and general Linux commands (df,free,vmstat etc) would help.

If you have glance installed on ESX3.5, it would get more than what you are looking for.
