Question

I’m using rsync to copy files between servers, I’m using -z option what compresses data only for the network transfer stage.

But I would like to leave compressed files on remote machine and I have not found this option in rsync.

Is this possible ?

Answer

No, it is not possible. You’ll need to compress the data either before or after you transfer it.
