Errors in Event Log from servers with > 32 logical CPUs

I have been noticing a lot of EventID 2006 entries in the Application Event Logs of our 40 core Dell R910 servers.  These machines run Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1.

 

"Unable to read Server Queue performance data from the Server service. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the status code, the second four bytes contains the IOSB.Status and the next four bytes contains the IOSB.Information."

 

I believe these are coming from the Orion polling engine, as it seems to be a 32-bit process.  This KB article from Microsoft seems to explain what I'm dealing with: 32-bit application cannot query performance "Server Work Queues" counters on Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer that has more than 32 processors

 

My guess would be that Orion encounters this issue when doing the individual CPU core polling for the machine view in Managed Nodes.  For these systems, SAM only finds data for the first 32 cores.  I thought at first that it was some limitation of the chart type and forgot about it a long time ago, but now I'm not so sure.

 

Is this a known issue with Orion SAM and many-core machines?
