Why are universal forwarders reporting "File will not be read, seekptr checksum did not match"?

We're getting bunch of these exceptions on our Universal Forwarders...any help would be appreciated and I can provide more info if needed... 1) `ERROR TailReader -File will not be read, seekptr checksum did not match`it says file will not be read. Does that mean it's ignoring the live log which is logged in the path specified..? ERROR TailReader -File will not be read, seekptr checksum did not match (file=/opt/app/ws/server/kv_JVM01/log/responseTime.2016-05-04.log). Last time we saw this initcrc, filename was different. You may wish to use larger initCrcLen for this sourcetype, or a CRC salt on this source. Consult the documentation or file a support case online at http://www.splunk.com/page/submit_issue for more info.

Will re-read entire file` Does that mean it's re-indexing entire file again..? INFO WatchedFile - File too small to check seekcrc, probably truncated. Will re-read entire file='/opt/app/ws/ATG-Data/home/servers/ku_JVM00/logs/apps.log' INFO WatchedFile - File too small to check seekcrc, probably truncated. Will re-read entire file='/opt/app/ws/server/ra_JVM00/log/server.log'. As soon as I restart UFs, I see the message below. What do the offset numbers mean..? INFO WatchedFile - Will begin reading at offset=0 for file='file=/opt/app/ws/server/kv_JVM01/log/responseTime.2016-05-04.log'. INFO WatchedFile - Will begin reading at offset=90 for file='/opt/app/ws/server/ra_JVM00/log/server.log'.
