The esxcli command set is based in a "namespace" model. It's kinda weird & convoluted.
Usage
Usage: esxcli [options] {namespace}+ {cmd} [cmd options] Options: --formatter=FORMATTER Override the formatter to use for a given command. Available formatter: keyvalue, csv, xml --debug Enable debug or internal use options --version Display version information for the script -?, --help Display usage information for the script
