Performance history is usually lost when services renamed in CCM
- trying to understand whether it is lost right away or stays somewhere?

Performance data is not lost when you rename a service. The location you can find it in is /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/. I don't believe this is cleared upon removing a host / service, for preservation reasons.

The Performance Data Tool has a delete functionality which is what you are most likely after:

http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Ad ... ol/details

Upload it into Nagios XI via Admin > System Extensions > Manage Components.

Access it via the Tools menu.
