Recently i´ve migrated an old fileserver to a new one, like several other previous migrations, all of then using robocopy with parameters /sec and /secfix (not copyall)
ArcServe stopped finishing backups (firts time i see this in more than 15 years) with error 87 Parameter is incorrect, wich indicates that this is the error from Windows being passed directlry to Arcserve in its error message
The error only occurs on volumes robocopied, not in the native file system
The following article shows the most accurate description of the problem and looks like fits perfeclty in my case...

but..
how to solve the problem?
i´ll have to re-apply, for instance, all owners again?
"...
On the CIFS file server, use the appropriate tools to correct the security information for affected files, and
ensure that all affected files have both an Owner SID and a Primary Group SID.
..."
I´ve tried two procedures:
1) reset all permissions from root folder, forcing the appropriate permissions again, trying to "refresh" permissions
2) reset all owner on all files in the folder
3) Duplicated an existing folder, creating a new tree of files, deleting the original and renaming the new/duplicated folder with the original name
nothing...ArcServe error is still:
Failed to read data from file: SAS_0307_Rev.0_11-21-2011_Reply.pdf RC=87, The parameter is incorrect.
WIndows explorer and end users are able to use the files with no problem
An example, no "users" because is a a folder whom "SERVER\Users" can´t have permissions
