You clearly already know the , is the culprit.

I am not sure how this should be solved. --sshlogin allows you to
specify multiple sshlogins separated by comma:
parallel --sshlogin host1,host2
or:
parallel --sshlogin "myssh host1,myssh host2"
or:
parallel --sshlogin "24/ssh host1,16/ssh host2"
So the problem here is that comma is used in the ssh command.

And currently GNU Parallel does not support that: It splits on , even
if preceded by \ . But this might be a reasonable solution - it is
definitely doable. Though I cannot recall ever seeing a situation in
which you use \,
Currently you can workaround this by using ~/.ssh/config: here you can
put in ProxyJump for TARGETHOST.
Or if the JumpHosts are the same for all servers:
parallel --ssh 'ssh -JINTHOST1,INTHOST2' --sshlogin 24/TARGETHOST
To everyone else: What do you think? Is \, the right solution here?
Would ,, be better (it might be less intuitive but cause less quoting
stress)?
