Query to check MS SQL restoration/Backup percentage

[Former Member]

We can use below select command to check backup/restoration percentage.

We can execute this query when MS SQL Backup or restoration is in progress.

Also this query will show the processes which are running in DB (Backup, Restore, rebuild, compression)

===========================================

SELECT command,

s.text,

start_time,

percent_complete,

CAST(((DATEDIFF(s,start_time,GetDate()))/3600) as varchar) + ' hour(s), '

+ CAST((DATEDIFF(s,start_time,GetDate())%3600)/60 as varchar) + 'min, '

+ CAST((DATEDIFF(s,start_time,GetDate())%60) as varchar) + ' sec' as running_time,

CAST((estimated_completion_time/3600000) as varchar) + ' hour(s), '

+ CAST((estimated_completion_time %3600000)/60000 as varchar) + 'min, '

+ CAST((estimated_completion_time %60000)/1000 as varchar) + ' sec' as est_time_to_go,

dateadd(second,estimated_completion_time/1000, getdate()) as est_completion_time

FROM sys.dm_exec_requests r

CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(r.sql_handle) s

WHERE r.command in ('RESTORE DATABASE', 'BACKUP DATABASE', 'RESTORE LOG', 'BACKUP LOG')

===========================================

We can execute this query from SAP level.

Go to DB02 --> Performance --> Additional Functions --> SQL Command Editor.
