Vsphere command lines.
Vsphere command line Groups.
I would like to know how many command groups are used in Vsphere. For instance Powercli by itself has many commands and scripts.
ESXCLI has many commands also. Probably there are other Groups I do not know about and that have many commands and their umbrellas.
So, I need to know which Groups of commands used in Vsphere environment (used with ESX hosts, Vcenter), and whether I can use just one of them, for instance Powercli group, and this will cover all I need to get information, set up new settings, Troubleshoot anything about Vsphere.
Thank you

I am not looking for individual commands... but Categories.... Like Powercli ,ESXCLI...
Though Powercli can still use ESXCLI commands
for instance ESXCFG, is it under Powercli or ESXCLI or it is deprecated.
Are there any other categories other than Powercli and ESXCLI

Get-Module -ListAvailable VMware*that will list all the VMware modules.
there are many troubleshooting tools for ESXi, as it's roughly based on Unix/Linux/Freebsd
if type esxcli you'll get the options

There are commands that you need to run after you connected to ESXi Host, like the ones listed here:

and probably there are the ones you can run when connected to vCenter..
I believe Powercli can achieve the same thing that the commands listed on this link can achieve:

You need to look and use esxcli and experiment with options and power cli to see the modules
