Hi,

Yep, you can monitor performance counters in Nagios XI. Have you installed an agent like NCPA on this server? That would be my recommended approach here as it has the ability to monitor windows counters.

A few docs with more details.

Nagios XI - Monitoring Performance Counters in Nagios Using NCPA

Let me know if you think that approach is going to work for you.
