Steps To Check RAM On Ubuntu Linux Terminal:

  1. Open terminal. If you have a cloud server that you would like to check the RAM for, log in to your server via an SSH client. If you want to check the RAM of your PC, open up your terminal
  2. Type the following command:

free -h

  1. You will now get a tabulated read out in terminal for your RAM. The RAM data output will contain two rows; Mem and Swap. The RAM table will have the following six columns:

• Total - the total amount of RAM installed on your system. • Used - the total amount of RAM used • Free - the amount of unused RAM that can be used by programs and apps. • Shared - Memory shared by Tmpfs (temporary file systems) • Buff/cache - Kernel memory for buffers, page cache, and slabs). • Available - Estimated available memory to open new applications, swap excluded.

Note: Mem has data outputs for all six columns, while Swap has data only for total, used, and free.

Congratulations, you have successfully checked your RAM on your Ubuntu Linux server or computer using a terminal command.
