If you get FreeIPMI to run on Windows - which it apparently might - then it should work. You'll need to build the exporter for Windows yourself, though. It's not officially supported.

If i get FreeIPMI to run on Windows, then go build for linux( run as a serve ) and use ipmi_remote.yml monitor for windows (client ) is ok ?

Ah, I see now. Sorry, I misunderstood your initial request. If you want to remotely monitor Windows servers, that is no problem. If you run the exporter on a Linux server, it will get the data from the BMCs of the Windows boxes, so you don't have to install anything there.
