rsync

Copy file from local server to remote server

You need to have sudo with NOPASSWD on server like so youruser ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

/usr/bin/rsync --delay-updates -F --compress --copy-links --archive --rsh='/usr/bin/ssh -S none -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null' --rsync-path='sudo -u root rsync' --chown=postgres:postgres --partial /tmp/dump.sql remote.server.address:/tmp/

This also changes user and group on the target

Delete files on source after transfer

You need to pass the --remove-source-files option to the rsync command. It tells rsync to remove from the sending side the files (meaning non-directories) that are a part of the transfer and have been successfully duplicated on the receiving side.

Do not pass the --delete option to rsync command as it delete extraneous files from destination directory. Delete source after successful transfer using rsync.
