4. The components to install can be chosen. By default all components should be chosen. Dbvisit Standby is bundled with Bitvise WinSSHD and Bitvise Tunnelier software to securely transfer the database updates to the standby server. If an alternative SSH (secure shell) method is already installed, then this can be used.
