Has anyone here used rsync (over ssh) to migrate Cloverleaf and sites from one server to another? If so, would you mind sharing your commands and the process you use?

Why would you want to do that instead of using “scp -r” or running tar through an SSH pipe?
Perhaps because rsync only sends changes.
I personally use svn to move the configuration back and forth between test and live system.
Rsync provides some helpful functionality. I use scp frequently, too.
We keep our Main and DR systems in sync with rsync. We just completed a fail-over between the two servers on Tuesday and it went flawlessly.
Our AIX/Unix team handles the process, so I’d have to ask them about the commands they use.
