SQL-Server: Is there a SQL script that I can use to determine the progress of a SQL Server backup or restore process?

Question

When I backup or restore a database using MS SQL Server Management Studio, I get a visual indication of how far the process has progressed, and thus how much longer I still

Answer 1

Script to check the Backup and Restore progress in SQL Server:

Many times it happens that your backup (or restore) activity has been started by another Database Administrator or by a job, and you cannot use the GUI anything else to check the progress of that Backup / Restore.

By combining multiple commands, I have generated below script which can give us a summary of current backups and restores which are happening on the server.

select 
r.session_id, 
r.blocking_session_id, 
db_name(database_id) as [DatabaseName],
r.command, 
[SQL_QUERY_TEXT] = Substring(Query.TEXT, (r.statement_start_offset / 2) + 1, (
            (
                CASE r.statement_end_offset
                    WHEN - 1
                        THEN Datalength(Query.TEXT)
                    ELSE r.statement_end_offset
                    END - r.statement_start_offset
                ) / 2
            ) + 1),
                [SP_Name] =Coalesce(Quotename(Db_name(Query.dbid)) + N'.' + Quotename(Object_schema_name(Query.objectid, Query.dbid)) + N'.' + 
     Quotename(Object_name(Query.objectid, Query.dbid)), ''),
r.percent_complete,
start_time,
CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), DATEADD(ms, [estimated_completion_time],
GETDATE()), 20) AS [ETA_COMPLETION_TIME],
CONVERT(NUMERIC(6, 2), r.[total_elapsed_time] / 1000.0 / 60.0) AS [Elapsed_MIN],
CONVERT(NUMERIC(6, 2), r.[estimated_completion_time] / 1000.0 / 60.0) AS [Remaning_ETA_MIN],
CONVERT(NUMERIC(6, 2), r.[estimated_completion_time] / 1000.0 / 60.0/ 60.0) AS [ETA_Hours],

wait_time/1000 as Wait_Time_Sec,
