{{ item }}

sudo rsync -avz -e "sudo -u {{ username.value }} ssh" --rsync-path="sudo rsync" {{ option }} {{ a_path.value }} {{ b_hostname.value }}:{{ b_path.value }}

parallel by directories (Pull Directory from Server B to Server A)

sudo rsync --dry-run --filter "+ /*/" --filter "- *" -avz -e "sudo -u {{ username.value }} ssh" --rsync-path="sudo rsync" {{ option }} {{ b_hostname.value }}:{{ b_path.value }} {{ a_path.value }} > /tmp/transfer.log
sed -i '1d' /tmp/transfer.log
sed -i '$d' /tmp/transfer.log
sed -i '$d' /tmp/transfer.log
sed -i '$d' /tmp/transfer.log

# 在删除一部分？(需要修改)
#sed -i '/\/$/d' /tmp/transfer.log

# dry-run测试
tail /tmp/transfer.log
cat /tmp/transfer.log | parallel --will-cite --dry-run -j {{ job.value }} sudo rsync -avz -e \"sudo -u {{ username.value }} ssh\" --rsync-path=\"sudo rsync\" {{ option }} {{ b_hostname.value }}:{{ b_path.value }}{} {{ a_path.value }}{} > /tmp/result.log
tail /tmp/result.log

cat /tmp/transfer.log | parallel --will-cite -j {{ job.value }} sudo rsync -avz -e \"sudo -u {{ username.value }} ssh\" --rsync-path=\"sudo rsync\" {{ option }} {{ b_hostname.value }}:{{ b_path.value }}{} {{ a_path.value }}{} > /tmp/result.log
