that's just regular system maintenance.  you're doing everything right.
 take a deep breath - now exhale.  :)

someone else can speak to the details but when the partitions are setup
they are marked to be auto-checked every X number of boots or Y number
of days.  i don't know where it picks either number from, usually Y
seems to be 180 days for me.

anyways, if it didn't find anything and the system booted normally
you're good to go.
