As per greet_sed changed sed expression to double quotes and output is below - NOK
Change is observed in the time stamp - space is highlighted:

Code:
 + ssh -q -o 'StrictHostKeyChecking no' deb011 'cd /intucell/data/logs/app; zcat sample.gz | sed -rne /2016-09-14' '01:09:56,796/,/2016-09-14' '01:46:56,438/p | grep -A10 -i '\''Do action on cell BLA330'\'';'
sed: -e expression #1, char 16: unterminated address regex

As per RudiC, added -vx before "cd in the code and below is the output:

Code:
 ssh -q -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" $server_id -vx "cd /intucell/data/logs/app; zcat $first_line_log_file | sed -rne '/$first_line_date_time/,/$first_log_first_line/p' | grep -A10 -i '$do_action_on_cell_2';"

Output as below:
Code:
 + ssh -q -o 'StrictHostKeyChecking no' deb011 -vx 'cd /intucell/data/logs/app; sample.gz | sed -rne '\''/2016-09-14 01:09:56,796/,/2016-09-14 01:46:56,438/p'\'' | grep -A10 -i '\''Do action on cell BLA330'\'';'

From the output above, i feel the below part is suspicious:
Code:
 '/\033[36m2016-09-14 01:09:56,796/,/\033[32m2016-09-14 01:46:56,438/p'

Kindly guide
