Check exact RAM/CPU specs on IBM ESX host?

I am trying to check out the exact RAM/CPU specs of an Esx host without having to down the server and open the case. On a Windows server, I can use CPU-Z and it gives me exact RAM and CPU specs.

I am trying to find an ESX/Linux equivalent.

Any ideas?

CPU can be found by

cat /proc/cpuinfo

The memory escapes me, if you have something like ilo (on HP) then it should tell you there, I'll edit this post if I think of anything else.

Just guessing but wouldn't that be:

cat /proc/meminfo

The machinemem property appears to equate to the total machine memory down here.

Yeah, CPUID can tell you info down to the manufacturer of the DIMM Smiley Happy I just have to imagine there is something out there similar.

As far specific info, I installed the Linux agent of IBM Director and that worked like a charm Smiley Happy
