I'm not sure if this helps, but I have a bash script with several rsync commands. In my rsync command on each line I tagged in the --progress switch, therefore when I run "backup" from terminal, I can see what the computer is working on.

I rsync to 3 drives. I can't tell which drive is which at the time cause it's going so darn fast, but at least I can get an idea of what the computer is working on at the time.
