I am having the same issue with Time Machine wanting to create new backups after a verification. I have no problem allowing it to create a new backup--I am loosing historical data yes, versioning yes, but I am OK with that as most of what I want backed up is the current state of files.
I want to know if anyone has figures out the root cause. This appeared to be happening after both an update to the ReadyNAS software and the installation of OSX 10.7.3. My wife's Mac Air is still on snow leopard and has never seen this error. As an added note, she is solely on Wifi. I had once read that it had something to do with Wifi and my iMac is physically connected to my gigabit network and to WiFi.
Anyway, has anyone heard of the cause. I would like to fix it and avoid the recreation of the backup every 8 or 9 days.
