Does robocopy automatically keep copying if an error occurs?
Posted by Nocturnal on December 24th, 2005


Like with xcopy you can use the /c switch to keep going even if errors are
encountered. Is there a switch for robocopy or does it by default keep
going if an error is detected?

I don't use robocopy, but this lik might help you out:
http://www.ss64.com/nt/robocopy.html

this might be what your looking for:
/R:n : number of Retries on failed copies - default is 1 million.
/W:n : Wait time between retries - default is 30 seconds.

so i assume you can use /R:1 /W:1 and this will just continue on right away
when an error has been is detected. hope this helps....
