how to get free space(memory) value of esx host

[M3VM]

Hi,

I want to get free space(memory) value of esxi host. From vsphere client, I could see that freeSpace = Capacity - MemoryUsage. Found an esxcli command for finding capacity: "esxcli hardware memory get". Capacity is given as Physical Memory in the output of the above command.

But could not find any esxcli command  for finding MemoryUsage? Thanks

Using esxtop, you can monitor all four major resource types (CPU, disk, memory, and network) on a particular ESXI host.

[M3VM]

Is there any other command apart from esxtop?

Get-VMHost -Name MyEsx | Select Name  @{N='Memory Capacity GB';E={[math]::Round($_.MemoryTotalGB,2)}},     @{N='Memory Used GB';E={[math]::Round($_.MemoryUsageGB,2)}},     @{N='Memory Free GB';E={[math]::Round(($_.MemoryTotalGB - $_.MemoryUsageGB),2)}}

From ESXCLI Command you can just get the total memory for your reference you can go through: vSphere Documentation Center

Thank you.
