The recommendation would be that you install NSClient++ or NCPA on the Hyper-V host and collect the metrics that way, more than likely you'll want to install an agent so that you can run powershell plugins to query the Hyper-V information.

You could also probably do something like this:

hi in the same context
is there a possibility to install nsclient remotely on windows server with no GUI?
Its a 'Windows Server 2016 Datacenter core'.
