This script is pulling files from username@hostname:/* to / on the current server. So you need to ssh to the target server and and run it. Tested when migrating between two DigitalOcean droplets a while ago.

sudo rsync -aAXvP --exclude={"/dev/*","/proc/*","/sys/*","/tmp/*","/run/*","/mnt/*","/media/*","/lost+found","/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*","/etc/network/interfaces"} username@hostname:/* /

What's the source and what's the destination here? Does this pull or push data?

It's pulling data. Source is first arg, destination is second.
