In various circumstances, users will want to copy files to a different environment. Other applications may share a single infrastructure in standalone or multisite configurations, which can require several docroot directories on the same infrastructure. You can also use the rsync command to complete file transfers in this situation.

To transfer files to a different, local application:

Create a private key on your local computer.
Add the public key to an account that has team lead permissions on the source infrastructure.
Copy the private key to the .ssh directory in the destination directory.
Set the .ssh directory permissions by using the following command:
chmod 700 .ssh
Use the following command to set the private key file permissions:
chmod 400

Run your rsync command. For example, the following is an rsync command between docroot directories on the same infrastructure:

rsync -avz -e "ssh -i /home/sourcedocroot/.ssh/id_rsa_rsync"  [email protected]:/mnt/gfs/sourceenv.dev/files /mnt/gfs/destinationenv.dev/files/
