Stuck backup job

I just migrated a system from DB2 7.1 to 8.2. One of the offline backup jobs I ran after the migration is evidently stuck or corrupted.

Now it is just sitting there in the 8.2 Task Center. I cannot Remove it because it is "currently running", and there is no Cancel option. When I Show Progress, it indicates a number of hours/minutes/seconds. It shows a start time of a week ago (probably correct for the initial start) with a duration of 15 hours & some minutes/seconds at this moment; it is evidently rolling over each day at the initial start time, since there is no "days" component to the duration.

It has persisted through several other successful offline and online backups as well as DB2 stops & starts (although I do not believe I have yet rebooted the server over this one).

Two questions:
1. Where are backup job scripts actually stored?
2. (How) can I safely remove this?
