D is correct.
vimtop is a tool similar to esxtop, which runs in the environment of the vCenter Server Appliance. By using the text-based interface of vimtop in the appliance shell, you can view overall information about the vCenter Server Appliance, and a list of vSphere services and their resource use.

The resxtop and esxtop command-line utilities provide a detailed look at how ESXi uses resources in real time. You can start either utility in one of three modes: interactive (default), batch, or replay.
The fundamental difference between resxtop and esxtop is that you can use resxtop remotely, whereas you can start esxtop only through the ESXi Shell of a local ESXi host.
