This simple script will show status of current running backup on the server.

SELECT
L.NAME DBName,
R.percent_complete as [Progress%]
FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID
WHERE R.Command LIKE '%BACKUP%'

Or you can change the where clause and use the following

SELECT
L.NAME DBName,
R.percent_complete as [Progress%]
FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID
WHERE percent_complete > 0

If no backups are running then the query will return no data.
