Thanks Guys,
further queries :

1. Hi Joe, i dont have X windows and hence what are the options to install it on the console only. can you please provide the exact command (syntax)
2. Lets assume i want to create 2 instances(DEV, QA) and same backup server then what should be done. Do i need a seperate XP server , monitor server for them or same can be used ? When we install the binaries when do we provide the details of creating the ASE instance.
3. Also if a resource file is to be used then could you please provide the sample resource file ?
4. If we already have the ASE instance "ITF" on a host , how can i create a new ASE instance ITF_2 on the same host ?
thanks

ok guys it helped me....
so if i repeat the steps :
1. first time installation i need to use ./setup - console (for command line installation) -- this will install the binaries + one ASE server ..the details will be given as per the request appearing on the console. make some decisions about sizes, paths, page sizes, network ports, etc...right ?
2. If i need to build more servers on this machine ..i need to create resource file by looking at the sample resource file and changing the values and execute:
srvbuildres -r srvbuild.adaptive_server_new1.rs
srvbuildres -r srvbuild.backup_server_new1.rs
srvbuildres -r srvbuild.monitor_server_new1.rs
srvbuildres -r srvbuild.xp_server_new1.rs

Please correct me if i am wrong?
