You can use any one of the following command line tools to view the ram size under Red hat Enterprise Linux desktop or server based system:
- /proc/meminfo file –
- free command –
- top command –
- vmstat command –
- dmidecode command –
- Gnonome System Monitor gui tool –
Open a command-line terminal (select Applications > Accessories > Terminal), and then type the following commands:
$ cat /proc/meminfo

The vmstat command can display memory statistics including additional information about processes, paging, block IO, traps, and cpu activity. Type the following command:
$ vmstat
$ vmstat -s
You can also use the dmidecode command for dumping a computer’s DMI (some say SMBIOS) table which can provide details about installed RAM and its speed:
# dmidecode --type memory
Sample outputs:
# dmidecode 2.10 SMBIOS 2.5 present.
