This KB applies also for 5.x releases

vim-cmd hostsvc/hosthardware works for me on 5.1 release ....

same for VMware's CPUID ISO at the end of the article.


You can also use esxcli to retrieve CPUID info  esxcli hardware cpu cpuid get or  esxcli hardware cpu global get

I am sure some command exist for PowerCLI but cannot tell you right now...


Lastly you can also grab some CPU info from inside the guest OS with this tools:
