1. create a shell action node which invokes hadoop fs command to create the folder with mkdir command.
testmkdir.sh
processdate=$(date +%y%m%d_%H%M)
hadoop fs -mkdir /user/TEST_$processdate
2. Copy local testmkdir.sh file into the HDFS location.
3. Open Hue from the Browser and create the new workflow with shell action node as follows:
shell command: mention the filename
Files: add the path name
The above mentioned paths are HDFS paths.

Workflow.xml
<workflow-app name="shellTest" xmlns="uri:oozie:workflow:0.4">
<start to="shelltest"/>
<action name="shelltest">
<shell xmlns="uri:oozie:shell-action:0.1">
<job-tracker>${jobTracker}</job-tracker>
<name-node>${nameNode}</name-node>
<exec>testmkdir.sh</exec>
<file>/user/reqFiles/testmkdir.sh#testmkdir.sh</file>
</shell>
<ok to="end"/>
<error to="kill"/>
</action>
<kill name="kill">
<message>Action failed, error message[${wf:errorMessage(wf:lastErrorNode())}]</message>
</kill>
<end name="end"/>
</workflow-app>
4. Submit the oozie workflow.....Enjoy....:-)
