Note

The default ports used by Dbvisit Standby on Windows based environments are 7890 for the network communication (Dbvnet) and 8081 used for the Web-based interface (Dbvserver).

By default the web-based interface is enabled on HTTP (port 8081) only. If HTTPS is required, the dbvserver.conf file will need to be updated (discussed later in this section) and Dbvserver service restarted.

  1. Select the Dbvisit Standby installation folder, also known as the DBVISIT_BASE location.  On windows the default location is under "C:\Program Files" if installed on 32bit Windows and "C:\Program Files (x86)".  You may select a different location, but the default is recommended.
  2. Not the storage requirements.  The default Dbvisit Standby installation is approx. 125MB in size.  This location where Dbvisit Standby is to be installed, will also hold the log and trace files.  It is recommended that you have at least an additional 100MB to 200MB of disk space.  
  3. Click on "Install" to continue

 

Once you click on install, the installation process will start.  If you have an earlier version of Dbvisit Standby installed, such as version 6.0.54, the Dbvserver Service will be stopped and removed to allow for the new software to be installed and started.  It is recommend to stop the Dbvserver (and Dbvnet if previously installed) before you star the Dbvisit Standby version 7 installation.
