Can you share the spec file used for installation ?

Are you trying to install portworx as non-root user ? Portworx needs root privileges and will not work if you try to non-root user.

Also default you need to install in kube-system namespace.

@cmpmohan were you able to install the portworx successfully as Sanjay mentioned? you need to run the portworx with root access. let us know for any further assistance.
