Create this as a batch file then run it twice.

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
 
SET _source=\\FileServ1\e$\users
 
SET _dest=\\FileServ2\e$\BackupUsers
 
SET _what=/COPYALL /B /SEC /MIR
:: /COPYALL :: COPY ALL file info
:: /B :: copy files in Backup mode. 
:: /SEC :: copy files with SECurity
:: /MIR :: MIRror a directory tree 
 
SET _options=/R:0 /W:0 /LOG:MyLogfile.txt /NFL /NDL
:: /R:n :: number of Retries
:: /W:n :: Wait time between retries
:: /LOG :: Output log file
:: /NFL :: No file logging
:: /NDL :: No dir logging 
 
ROBOCOPY %_source% %_dest% %_what% %_options%

You could use any of the following for performance related issues too taking care of...
robocopy \\sharedDRive\shared d:\\valley2\backup /w:30 /r:13

robocopy /mir \\SharedDrive\shared\ d:\\valley2\backup\ /XD dirs $RECYCLE.BIN /XN /XO

In your syntax, i suppose it works if you remove *.*
