I have found the server status page helpful when I want an update on
progress.  “count” column will increment when page is refresh after a
reasonable time (a minute or so). And I can usually get a sense of how many
files are expected by looking at that hosts summary page and the “File
Size/Count Reuse Summary” table for recent total number of files and the
“Backup Summary” tables gives recent time elapsed doing incremental and
full backups.

And if the RefCntFsck option is 1, 2 or 3, you can see the backup # change
periodically with page refresh as it works from oldest to newest backup.

You could set XferLogLevel to a higher value for that host and view the log
as the backup progresses. I set to 1 to get started when a little detail is
needed.
