Event store UUIDs don't match naming your internal HD or any other drive/partition being backed-up. Time Machine can't be sure the OSX internal log of file changes that it normally uses is correct.
This happens in the following circumstances:
- •The first backup of a disk, or to a new location
- •After booting from your install disc, Recovery HD, or a different OSX volume (usually)
- •A full restore
- •Certain hardware repairs (e.g., new internal disk or logic board)
- •Removal of large exclusions
- •A very large volume of changes (especially an OSX update)
- •An improper shutdown of your Mac, or improper disconnection or power loss on the Time Machine drive
- •If it's an external HD, an improper shutdown or disconnection of the drive
- •A failed or cancelled backup
- •Many days without a backup
It usually causes a lengthy deep scan/traversal (below), so if you see it frequently, you need to figure out why it's happening.
