That's what you configure with the /r (retry) and /w (wait) arguments: how robocopy robocopy should react when it encounters files it can't copy, that is, how often it should retry the copy and how long it should wait between retries. In your case, these need to be low (default is 1000000 retries and 30 seconds pause, which would effectively stop the copy at the first file that can't be copied).
