is it possible to get a trial of hyperic
Speak to your Account Manager, it's not available as a download, it's not often that they give it away for trial.
or arrange a demonstration with your VMware Partner.

Looks like they still offer their opensource version. I see the licenses here:

will this allow me to monitor cpu disk mem etc same as virtual servers
Yes Hyperic can pull that data the same way and when the two are integrated (vROps + Hyperic) it should be pretty seamless. Under the hood, Hyperic is using agents on the physical server to share with a Hyperic server that then relays that information to vROps and vROps applies it's analytics to the data.
VMware may have improved how these integrate, it's been a couple years since I've used these products together. I hope that helps!

Another bonus to Hyperic is that it can also monitor your applications that are running on a physical or virtual OS.
