I would however give it a try. I would schedule a nightly execution
with a local path to see if that completes.

Now I got it: your script is hanging against a specific \copy command,
while I was thinking it was hanging once it was dumping a specific
table line from your copy.

My personal experience with shares and network that are not so much
stable is that they can block, and that is why I'm suggesting to try
on the local filesystem to see if that is a share-related problem or a
resource problem. Also scheduling the script at a different time could
help, because it could be at that time the machine (and it could mean
the sharing machine) is busy at the point it does not respond.
