Red face HELP please with restore

hi all,
we are on 8.1 /Windows 2003
unfortunately our DBA left the company and our database got damaged, we have no other employee with db2 experience
did a restore (using the GUI) to existing database using last full backup and roll forward to the previous morning
the database is 30 gigs and the restore has been running for 16 hours,
how can i tell if it is actually still running

thanks for the help!

Probably not. 30GB is small and should finish in less than 1 hour. You can use "db2 list utilities show detail" to see if it is doing anything. You will need to run it at least twice to see if the number change.

i'm not sure if we have list utilities in our version

i went to db2cmd and typed db2 list utilities show detail and received this message


C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>db2 list utilites show detail
SQL0104N An unexpected token "utilites" was found following "LIST". Expected
tokens may include: "ACTIVE". SQLSTATE=42601

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>
