Well. I have the same problem while trying to copy some web content from one server called Server2 to another one called Server1. The script runs on Server2:
The script does what it's expected to do, but the output gets instantly messed up with this tcgetattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device warning which is really annoying and I want to get rid of it. The point is that the destination folder on Server1 is a vsftpd-folder that has ftp:ftp ownership. So I have to change it to user:user first, cpdup it, then change it back to the original ftp:ftp. Looks kinda messy, I know. But how is it possible to make it simpler while preserving the original ownership since it is necessary for the user to get to Server1 through vsftpd from time to time? Thank you.
Well, ssh without a remote command and maybe especially with -t or -tt thinks it will be somewhat like an interactive session, but your stdin is a flat file. Why do that? a simple "ssh user@host 'commands'" is usually sufficient, with no remote tty or terminal control error messages.

I missed I'd better just ssh to the server rather than su and ssh (it's a key-based authentication only):
update (sorry, missed some parts of the updated script)
Now it goes with no warnings though I still need at least one -t while ssh-ing to have a tty-assignment to sudo since it ends up with "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo" otherwise.
Yes. Root is not allowed to ssh. And I used to use another script before which I created to mirror the content. It is an ftp-based one. And it's way simpler than using ssh in this case. A corresponding part of it is:
Much shorter and clearer I guess. The scripts reads the password from a hidden file. But the point is that it is not that safe as ssh.
