Since upgrading to High Sierra, I've seen several errors listed in the log.
I use the following Terminal command to view the log:
log show --predicate 'subsystem == "com.apple.TimeMachine"' --info | grep 'upd: (' | cut -c 1-19,140-999
Does anyone see errors like this???

The "failed to remove attribute" error happens with each backup.
The "iterating sibling links" error happens occasionally (once or twice a week).
These errors happen on an iMac 5K 27" with a Fusion drive. I have rebuilt the iMac, run diskutil in recovery mode, never found any real errors aside from these with started after the upgrade to HS.
Anyone else see stuff like this????
