issue was with host machines windows perfmon. Splunk-perfmon couldn't communicate to windows due to corrupt windows perfmon.

Follow the steps below:
1. Launch Command Prompt as Administrator (right click Runs As Administrator).
2. Drop into the C:\WINDOWS\System32 directory by typing CD\ then CD Windows\System32
3. To rebuild your resource counters type the following command:
lodctr /r
Restart the splunk-forwarder service and it should resolve this particular issue.

So, what did you try to solve the issue? It's stating that Splunk can't connect to the remote machine.
