There's a number of simple solutions to this problem. Your wrapper
scripts could write the PID to a file. I do this on the SCOUG server to
keep track of the REXX deamons. For one-off analysis, Theseus can show
you the command lines. IAC, you are not looking for cmd.exe instances,
you are looking for dSync instances. How many of these do you have
running?

If you have more than one dSync instance running, you should be able to
figure out which instances are still getting useful work done and which
are not.
Since you seem to be implying that you have multiple dSync instances
running, you'll probably need to use Theseus to sort this out unless you
are willing to let the other dSync instances finish. Then the one that's
left is the one that's stuck.

If the dSync instance is not doing useful work, it's very likely stuck in
the exit list. Cmd.exe is brain-dead, but experience says it's unlikely
to get stuck in the exit list.
>dSync displays the current filename being processed. The screen shows

>dSync isn't in the exit list yet.
If the dSync instance is still running, it's very likely it's stuck in the
exit list.
