You can use replay mode with command-line options.
The following table lists the command-line options available for esxtop replay mode.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| R | Path to the vm-support collected snapshot’s directory. |
| a | Show all statistics. This option overrides configuration file setups and shows all statistics. The configuration file can be the default ~/.esxtop50rc configuration file or a user-defined configuration file. |
| b | Runs esxtop in Batch mode. |
