You may try looking through the activity log.

Also, for example, if you are backing up storage pools used to hold
image backups, because the process does not update it's 'bytecount'
untill it finishes a file, and image backup files can be huge, you may
find everything is actually working fine.

How long has it appeared the server has 'locked up', and is it just the
backup stgpools that appear frozen?

Computer says 'No'..

Subject: Server Locked Up

It seems our server has locked up. We are copying our storage pools to
our
copypool and nothing seems to be moving, no counts are increasing. Our
server level is 5.1.1. We have 10 tape drives, all online. 8 are in use
and 2 are reserved. Has anyone had this problem before? The dsmserv.err
log doesn't tell me anything, is there somewhere else I can look?

Thanks for any help,
