Hi,
Is there any way to verify if a Backup Job is stucked ?
Everyday I find Backup Jobs greater than 20 hours in active status, and Id like to verify if the job is stucked (command line option).
Thanks

Not too sure - either field 15 or 30. See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH65123

Check the bpbkar logs on client to see if it's appending... , also check in system logs to see if bpbkar (bpbkar32.exe in Windows) process is still running. If it crashes, you won't see anything in logs.

Is there any way to verify the "Current Kilobytes written" data in a specified job in the command line ?

In Linux, you can do this to print the iostat output with timestamp every 30 sec:
while true; do iostat -t ; sleep 30; done
.. you will need to "man iostat" to understand what every columns mean.
