A database that starts 10 days ago and has an RRA with 
10 days of samples ends approximately now.

You can only add data to the end of the database, rrdtool
will shift the values in time. So what you need is a
database that ends 10 days ago. Try:

rrdtool create test.rrd -b now-22d -s 86400 \
DS:msgs:ABSOLUTE:86400:U:U RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:10

rrdtool update test.rrd 1128643200:100

Serge.

p.s. try it within 2 days, otherwise it will give the
same complaint again :)
