[rrd-users] Is there a workaround for multiple independent updates inside 1 sec?

[dave-mlist at bfnet.com]

I have a script that walks an SNMP table and runs the following commands.  It
is updating different data sources within one second of each other, which
I think should be OK.  Is there any way around the ERROR lines I'm seeing?
