Server 2008 R2 SP1 using Windows Server Backup connected to NAS via iSCSI. Scheduled nightly backups have been working correctly for over a year.
A running backup has been stuck for 12+hours with the message "Removing deleted items..." There is plenty of storage available on the NAS.
Attempting to cancel the job via GUI brings up another window "Please wait..." with a progress bar continually looping from 0 to 100%. Running cmd as Administrator using wbadmin stop job, prompts Yes or No , answering Y doesn't responds with a blank line. I can't reboot the server until the weekend, are there processes or other services I can try to stop?
