Radhika, I'm REALLY confused about what you are trying to do now..... According to the docs from BMC
https://docs.bmc.com/docs/display/public/ars81/Installing+multiple+instances+of+BMC+Remedy+AR+System+on+one+computer They don't indicate that you can't put multiple servers on the same server into a server group...but I'm confused as to why you would want to. If you want one TCP Port on one Server with 3 IP's, just install 1 server, and it works like that. If you want three different instances, all on one port for three different IP's, you could do as was suggested with virtual machines, but you said you don't want that. I really can't fathom why you would want 3 installs on the same server, 3 different ports, and all pointed to the same DB....could you explain further?
