Sybase ASE数据库的图形界面安装，虽然比较顺利，但是也让中文用户很不爽，那就是字符集的选择，似乎没有余地，只能Customize选择，还不一定一次能选对。
比如，你一路安装的时候, ASE sql server创建的时候，很难从界面里头选择语言和字符集。
还好，ASE15.x提供了silent install的方式。
1. 安装并生成silent install的配置文件
运行setupconsole.exe -options-record c:\ase1503_silentinstall.txt，这一路你只安装软件，可选择完全安装，但别装数据库服务。
这样得到了样本配置文件：ase1503_silentinstall.txt
注意一边这几项内容即可：
-P installLocation="D:\sybase" ## 你可以到时候改为你想要的目录
-W installSoftwareLicenseType.type=developer
-W sysamLicense.proceedWithoutLicense=false
-W sysamLicense.useExistingLicenseServer=false
-W sysamLicense.licenseFile=
-W askConfig.configureAse=false
-W askConfig.configureBackup=false
-W askConfig.configureMonitor=false
-W askConfig.configureXp=false
-W askConfig.configureJobScheduler=false
-W askConfig.configureSelfManagement=false
-W askConfig.configureUnifiedAgent=false
这样安装完，你会得到一套没有数据库服务的Sybase ASE15.x. 如果你将其卸载，接着，运行：
setupConsole.exe -silent -options c:\ase1503_silentinstall.txt -W SybaseLicense.agreeToLicense=true -G replaceExistingResponse="yesToALL"
即可实现silentinstall。
2. build ase server
限于篇幅，这里以ASE的主server: sybase sqlserver为例，进入目录：
%SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\bin, 有个命令sybatch.exe，这个命令长期不见之于文档，不知道什么原因，它就是windows版的sqlbuilder，用于创建各个服务的。
输入资源配置文件在哪儿呢？从%SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\samples\server里头把sybatch_ase.res文件复制到c:\sybatch_ase.res
修改一下里边的内容，不然，肯定大多会失败：
改的地方：
1). 安装目录，保持一致
sybinit.boot_directory: D:\Sybase
sybinit.release_directory: D:\Sybase
所有的C:\**什么的，都得调成你现在安装的位置，包括数据文件。
2) sysprocs.dat文件大小，132太小，改成至少136
sqlsrv.do_create_sybsystemprocs_device: yes
sqlsrv.sybsystemprocs_device_physical_name: D:\Sybase\data\sysprocs.dat
sqlsrv.sybsystemprocs_device_size: 150
sqlsrv.sybsystemprocs_db_size: 150
sqlsrv.sybsystemprocs_device_logical_name: sysprocsdev
3) 字符集，这个是大家比较关心的：
sqlsrv.sort_order: binary
sqlsrv.default_characterset: utf8
sqlsrv.default_language: us_english
默认的是iso_1, english
4)下边三个值你可以改成你想要的
sqlsrv.server_name: SYBASE
sqlsrv.sa_password:
sqlsrv.sa_login: sa
这里帖出一个由sybatch.exe创建Sybase SqlServer服务的结果：运行sybatch.exe -r c:\sybatch_ase.res
结果如下：

至于Backupserver, xp server, monitorserver在samples目录下边都能找到样例资源配置文件，不再缀述。 这个工具，现在的Sybase文档里头反而不再提及了。只要知道能用就行了。
