This looks like the problem resolved by the commit below,
fixed in 3.3.1.  looks like you are running the SGI rpm
though, I don't know whether there's been an SGI build
with that fix included yet.

    Fix a sigsegv in pmdalinux in pernode cpu metrics.
    
    We need to ensure whenever the cpu indom is updated that
    the node indom is done too - we were calling the update
    routines one-after-the-other but missed a spot (instance
    lookup).  Now its just one call, and it does both things
    so it cannot ever be missed.


cheers.
