In any case, all the other points you mention - copying, checking and so on - should better go to different threads, because each of them can be discussed separately (and, depending on your environment, might have non-trivial aspects to discuss).

I suggest to start separate threads for each item, and also indicate what exactly is your problem in each case.
I was able to get help on another forum. It turns out that i really only need one loop to accomplish this task and apart from the redundant ssh scp sections and the triple loop, I was pretty close. Remove those and remove the array counter and I had a working script! Thanks for trying, guys!

clear(3XCURSES) 					  X/Open Curses Library Functions					   clear(3XCURSES)

NAME
clear, erase, wclear, werase - clear a window SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib -R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ] c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ] #include <curses.h> int clear(void); int erase(void); int wclear(WINDOW *win); int werase(WINDOW *win); DESCRIPTION
The clear() and erase() functions clear stdscr, destroying its previous contents. The wclear() and werase() functions perform the same action, but clear the window specified by win instead of stdscr. The clear() and wclear() functions also call the clearok() function. This function clears and redraws the entire screen on the next call to refresh(3XCURSES) or wrefresh(3XCURSES) for the window. The current background character (and attributes) is used to clear the screen. PARAMETERS
win Is a pointer to the window that is to be cleared. ERRORS
OK Successful completion. ERR An error occurred. ATTRIBUTES
