How to install multiple OnPrem BC with different localizations (W1, AT, DE, etc.)

Hi,
 
We have a client who uses OnPrem BC. They do this by running SQL on one VM, W1 BC on a separate VM, and AT BC on yet another VM. The reason the two BCs ended up on separate VMs is that when we tried to install AT alongside W1, we ran the installer and ran into the problem that there was no installation option available, since it detected that there was already a BC on the server, so it only offered to modify that one. But up until now, we were fine with that, it worked well enough. However, it has now turned out that we also need DE, CZ, and who knows what else we’ll need, but we don’t want a separate VM for each one, because that’s a total waste of resources (and Windows license). So the question is, is there any way we can install these on a single server?
I have the same question (0)

    As far as I know, if they are from the same major version, they cannot coexist.
    However, you can try installing it on different database instances first.
     
    Hope this can give you some hints.
    Thanks.
