HPVM (part of T2767BC Integrity VM Bundle) refuses to install (HP-UX 11i v3)
Installing from the Sept. 2008 update of HP-UX 11i v3 results in a "Bad Address (14)" error during installation.
Copying to /var/spool/sw with swcopy works fine (after removing dependency checks). Installing from /var/spool/sw results in "The software selection HPVM.HPVM-CORE,... is not available. Make sure its state is "AVAILABLE"."
What is wrong? I'll probably remove the bits of this bundle that are installed and try again, but I'm not convinced that'll work. Any other suggestions?

Re: HPVM (part of T2767BC Integrity VM Bundle) refuses to install (HP-UX 11i v3)
Read the swlob log for error messages - I recently found something like "you cannot install product abc if product def is already installed ...".
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: HPVM (part of T2767BC Integrity VM Bundle) refuses to install (HP-UX 11i v3)
Attempting to remove VPAR-CORE actually wants to remove vmKernel - that is removing vPar support from the kernel removes Integrity VM support as well.
The error message refers to /opt/hpvm as its status being unavailable (instead of AVAILABLE). Searching for /opt/hpvm in the current installed base shows it owned by vmKernel.
What gives? This is so frustrating!

HPUX11i-DC-OE B.11.31.0809 HP-UX Data Center Operating Environment
This matches what is on the DVDROM.

Re: HPVM (part of T2767BC Integrity VM Bundle) refuses to install (HP-UX 11i v3)
I suspect you may be hitting a known issue:
2.1.1 Installing Integrity VM V4.0 As Independent Product Fails
If you try to install Integrity VM V4.0 independently (that is, not as part of or in conjunction with
the OE), then the installation fails. There are two basic reasons for the failure:
├в ┬в Installing T2767BC from DVD #1 fails, because the bundle is not on DVD #1
├в ┬в Installing T2767BC from DVD #2 fails, because its prerequisite (VMKernelSW) is not on
DVD #2.
To work around this problem, follow these steps:
1. Install VMKernelSW from DVD #1.
#swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s DVD #1 VMKernelSW
2. Install T2767BC from DVD #2.
#swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s DVD #2 T2767BC
See page 23 of http://docs.hp.com/en/T2767-90179/T2767-90179.pdf and try this procedure

# swlist -l bundle | grep -i vmkernelsw
VMKernelSW B.04.00 Integrity VM Kernel Software
The problem still occurs when trying to install T2767BC.

As Torsten said, make sure all latest OS patches and related OS bundle installed on the system before installing HPVM 3.5/HPVM 4.0 as it looks for some specific os bundle during installation. Please check below URl for minimal requirement to install HPVM 4.0

Check the base_pagesize kernel parameter:
# kctune base_pagesize
If it is 64, change it to 4, reboot and install, then change it back to 64.

This marks the second time that HP-UX upgrades (update-hpux) didn't work - and in both cases, a reinstall worked beautifully.
