Resolved Download compressed backup via CLI

You can try the following method, but note that plesk_agent_manager is non-public utility and we do not recommend to use it.
First, create an archive file from your backup with something like:

# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/plesk_agent_manager export-dump-as-file --dump-file-name /var/lib/psa/dumps/backup_info_1901141535.xml --output-file /tmp/123.tar

Once it’s done your compressed file will be ready for download, to grab it via rsync to your computer do something like this:

# rsync –progress –rsh=ssh user@host.com:/tmp/123.tar ~/
