Check BIOS/UEFI Settings and enable Virtualization. (Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x))
Once it is enabled and if you have installed the .deb package fopr hpe-vme  , run the below command and check the output.

sudo kvm-ok

Hi 

Can you verify the following "Secured-core Support" status?

From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration > BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) > Server Security > Microsoft(R) Secured-core Support.

It should be disabled .

Also make sure #cat /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/nested shows 1 or y for amd  nested virtualization support.

You can review the following link 

https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/how-to/virtualisation/enable-nested-virtualisation/index.html

Re: kvm_intel vmx not supported by cpu on amd server

yes, i already checked and the Microsoft(R) Secured-core Support. paramiter is disabled

#cat /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/nested shows 1 !

but i don't undestand why during the HPE VM installation the installer reports error on kvm_intel error and not in the kvm_amd.
