I am trying to monitor the Windows 2012 host using the Nagios Core.
I have installed the NSClient on the Server.
For the Drive Space i am getting the Error Invalid Drive.
For Memory usage i am getting the Error " Return code of 139 is out of Bounds"
It seems that it is not able to fetch other data as well, please have a look at the screenshot attached.

How are you trying to monitor the server?
What checks are you performing?
Are you running an agent of the server? If so, it looks like a firewall is blocking access.

If you are getting connection refused, it sounds like the firewall may be active and you don't have an exception for port 12489 OR the NSClient service isn't running.

Can you compare the following between the server that is working and the the one that is not to make sure they match
nsclient.ini
check_command directive in each of the services

nclient.ini file is not same on both the servers.
Do let me know is it ok to replace the nsclient.ini file from the working server to the non working server.
If yes do i need to restart the services of the Nagios after the file replace.

Yes, this shouldn't be a problem, but you may want a backup of the file just in case.

Yes, you will need to restart the services for the changes to take affect.
