What is vmwMemUtil?

The instantaneous amount of memory, in KB, actually being utilized by a virtual machine, from the legacy (obsolete) per-VM memory table. Comparing it to vmwMemConfigured showed how much of a VM's allocated memory was actively in use at poll time.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.3.2.4.1.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> VMWARE-OBSOLETE-MIB::vmwMemUtil

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.3.2.4.1.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> VMWARE-OBSOLETE-MIB::vmwMemUtil.1
