Posted this message on "Virtualization on Windows" with more details. The message here is more specific to SAP ASE.
Hi,
We have installed SAP ECC 6.0 EhP 7 using Sybase ASE 15.7 RDBMS as two separate Hyper-V Guest Virtual Machines running on Windows Server 2012 R2 OS. This same OS is the host OS. Our problem is that when we start either one of two Guest VM and start SAP services then everything seems to work fine. But when we turn on another Guest VM and start SAP services then both systems SAP services would go down by loosing internal database connection. All the DIA processes would change to "Run" state from "Wait" state. The sequence of the VM startup doesn't matter. If we look at the dev_wX log files then we see below messages:

If I try to connect to ASE using isql then it works fine. I was wondering if Sybase ASE has port conflicts with other VM? Shouldn't each VM work independently without impacting other VM's? I have already update Sybase ASE ports as per SAP Note 1729176 but still no help.
Any help or pointer would be really helpful.
Many Thanks!
