So pulling in synchronize between two remote servers works like a champ:
---
- hosts: web14
remote_user: jlouthan
tasks:
- name: Get current timestamp
local_action: command bash -c 'date +%Y-%m-%d.%H%M'
register: timestamp
run_once: true
- name: Get current datestamp
local_action: command bash -c 'date +%Y-%m-%d'
register: datestamp
run_once: true
- name: Create test file
file: path=/home/jlouthan/testing{{ timestamp.stdout }} state=touch
- name: List the file recently created
shell: ls -la /home/jlouthan | grep {{ datestamp.stdout }}
register: touchtest
- debug: var=touchtest.stdout_lines
- pause: prompt='Note the name of the file'
- name: Pull test file from web16 to web14
synchronize: mode=pull src=/home/jlouthan/testing{{
timestamp.stdout }} dest=/home/jlouthan/
delegate_to: web16
- name: List test files from today
shell: ls -la /home/jlouthan | grep {{ datestamp.stdout }}
delegate_to: web16
register: destcheck
- debug: var=destcheck.stdout_lines
- pause: prompt='Check dest test files'
However, pushing from one remote server to another does not work:
$ cat test-push-files.yml
---
- hosts: web16
remote_user: jlouthan
tasks:
- name: Get current timestamp
local_action: command bash -c 'date +%Y-%m-%d.%H%M'
register: timestamp
- name: Get current datestamp
local_action: command bash -c 'date +%Y-%m-%d'
register: datestamp
- name: Create test file
file: path=/home/jlouthan/testing{{ timestamp.stdout }} state=touch
delegate_to: web14
- name: List the file recently created
shell: ls -la /home/jlouthan | grep {{ datestamp.stdout }}
delegate_to: web14
register: touchtest
- debug: var=touchtest.stdout_lines
- pause: prompt='Note the name of the file'
- name: Pull test file from web14 to web16
synchronize: src=/home/jlouthan/testing{{ timestamp.stdout }}
dest=/home/jlouthan
delegate_to: web14

I tried following the examples using rsync within synchronize:
dest=http://web16/home/jlouthan/
... and that doesn't seem to work for me.
I guess what I am asking is how do you rsync pushing from one remote server
to another (as oppose to pulling which I can successfully do).
