Description

Currently the feature of memory utilization is not available via API call (listVirtualMachines).
https://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.5/root_admin/listVirtualMachines.html
The listVirtualMachine get its values from the "user_vm_view" table in the database. Currently it shows the CPU utilization of the VM's.
The only way to find out the memory utilization of VM's running on XenServer, is to run the "xentop" command on the pool master of the cluster.
