If you want to copy your disk image to remote machine over ssh you need to use the following command:

ddrescue /dev/sda1 - | ssh user@host ‘cat > /datarecovery/backup.img’

*I made this post as a reference for myself, and maybe for those who may have same requirements.

Perhaps you could add it to the Gentoo Wiki under the Tips and Tricks section.

:!: Afaik this will only work with dd_rescue and not with ddrescue. The reason is that ddrescue needs random access to the oiutput file in order to retry unreadable parts after a first sequential run (which is much better from a data recovery perspective, but hurts if you want to stream it)

greycat usually does that with cpio (on both ends) afair; I recommend #openssh on IRC: chat.freenode.net
