This means there was an update done at time 1039622235. You are trying to update at time 1039622171. This is *before* the last update to the database. RRDtool is telling you this isn't possible. 1) You cannot update data that's already in the database. 2) RRDtool has to fill in any missing data (by design) 3=1+2) You have to enter data in sequence. There's nothing wrong with entering data at another time, just make sure you don't update with "now" and only then start updating the historic data.
