I am able to get cpu memory of different objects like hosts, datacenter through the api. But i need the total CPU, memory statistics of the whole vcenter as shown in the pic below using pyvmomi. Any help would be appreciated. enter image description here

You need to loop through and get the hosts after connecting to vCentre with SmartConnect

The host hardware information is located here

Once you have the hosts you loop through them and get the hardware details. They are in raw format so you have to convert them. I've pasted the convertMemory function I use

hosts = content.viewManager.CreateContainerView(content.rootFolder,[vim.HostSystem],True)
for host in hosts.view:
    # Print the hosts cpu details
    print(host.hardware.cpuInfo)
    # convert CPU to total hz to ghz times numCpuCores
    print("CPU:", round(((host.hardware.cpuInfo.hz/1e+9)*host.hardware.cpuInfo.numCpuCores),0),"GHz")
    #covert the raw bytes to readable size via convertMemory
    print("Memory:", convertMemory(host.hardware.memorySize))

The convertMemory function just converts the number to readable memory

def convertMemory(sizeBytes):
    name = ("B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB")
    base = int(floor(log(sizeBytes, 1024)))
    power = pow(1024,base)
    size = round(sizeBytes/power,2)
    return "{}{}".format(floor(size),name[base])
