How to find out if a multi node backup job still running?

Edit:
The question relates to scripting, i forgot to explicitly specify this.

Hi,

Is there a way to find out programatically (edited) if a backup task is running if the backups are taken from multiple nodes concurrently?
I see that there is an option to run scripts when backups are running, but it seems those scripts are run on a per-node basis.

If i have a backup job that takes backups of say 3 nodes concurrently, is there a single cluster-wide method to see if the backups from that task are all done?

Hi
you can see in the Cluster task log if a Backup(s) is/are running.

Hi,
Yes, i am aware of that.
Is there a method of programatically determining it (this was actually the question but it seems i did not formulate it right), as in a single command?

I did hack in some scripting involving lock files placed/deleted by the hook script that also checks for other lock files placed by a script running on the storage that does rsync backups between 2 NAS instances, but i was wondering if there is a simpler way of determining it. I tried searching the cluster logs, vzdump lock files but none seemed to be a straightforward way (maybe except grepping the running process list for vzdump).
