Robocopy, Access is denied Acessing Attributes
I am getting frustrated. I have created a batch file with Robocopy, to copy files from a Win 7 to a Seagate NAS 110 server, and for some folders , I am getting the Changing the Attribute access denied error at the destination folder. When I compare security and permission between folders where it work and where it does not work, I cannot see any difference.
I ran it first from the CMD command and it works fine copying all directories and files. I used the /M switch, and it also deleted the archive attribute from the source file. I ran it again and it only copied the one file I have modified, so I was happy and created a batch file, I believe with nearly the same switches. The next day when the batch file run from the scheduler I got the above problems. There was one access denied attribute change from a read only source file so I changed the /M switch to /XO. When I run the below command directly from the "CMD command" I get the same error. I cannot figure out what I have done wrong, your support is appreciated.
The script: Robocopy "F:\My Documents" "\\BA-xxxx\xxx-PC\My Documents" /XD dirs *.tmp /XA:H /ZB /MIR /XO /FFT /XX /R:0 /W:0 /Log+:"E:\Data backup\CopyLog.txt" /NP /NDL

I just ran it again from the command prompt with administrator right, and it still gives the same errors.
Does the script run okay if you remove the section for resetting the attributes? The Seagate NAS 110 server may have a proprietary OS and/or file system that does not support changing file attributes.
