This is Linux, isn't it?

On Linux systems, if you do killall -USR1 dd that will send SIGUSR1 to dd, causing dd to print progress statistics. It won't know what percent it's done, since it can't measure the length of a pipe, but it will know how much it's copied.

You can put that in a loop.

Code:
while killall -USR1 dd
do
        sleep 10
done

vparremove

vparremove(1M)															    vparremove(1M)

NAME

       vparremove - remove a virtual partition

SYNOPSIS

       vp_name db_file]

DESCRIPTION

       The command deletes a virtual partition previously created using the command.  All resources associated with the virtual partition are made
       available for allocation to other partitions.

       Unintentional use of this command has serious consequences; therefore the user is prompted to confirm  the  operation  unless  the  (force)
       option is specified.

   Options
       recognizes the following command line options and arguments:

       Specifies the unique name of the virtual partition which
		      is to be removed.  Required.

       Removes a virtual partition from the partition database
		      contained  in  db_file.	If  this option is omitted, the virtual partition is removed from the monitor's database.  In this
		      case, the partition must be in the state to be removed.  Thus it is an error to try to remove the current virtual partition,
		      the one in which the command is executing.

       Specifies the force option.
		      Omits  the  confirmation dialog before removing the virtual partition.  This option is intended for use by scripts and other
		      non-interactive applications.

SECURITY RESTRICTIONS

       This command is restricted to processes owned by superuser.

       When virtual partition flexible administrative capability is enabled, a virtual partition can only be removed  from  within  a  Designated-
       Admin vPar.

RETURN VALUE

       The command exits with one of the following values:

       Successful completion.
       One or more error conditions occurred.

EXAMPLES

       Destroy the virtual partition in the partition database currently running in the monitor:

       Destroy the virtual partition in the partition database currently running in the monitor using the force option:

       Delete partition in partition database file

ERRORS

       displays error messages on standard error for any of the following conditions:

	      o  db_file does not exist, cannot be accessed, is not a virtual partition database file, or is corrupt.

	      o  vp_name does not exist in the monitor's database or in db_file.

	      o  vp_name in the monitor's database is in some state other than

	      o  The command and the virtual partition monitor are at different revision levels.

	      o  When  the  virtual  partition	flexible administrative capability is enabled and the local virtual partition is not a Designated-
		 Admin vPar.
