Cloudera user not alowed to manipulate hdfs system on hadoop

I am trying to create a folder in hdfs hadoop file system but it is not allowing me to create a folder using the user cloudera nor as root. What should I configure to make it to allow me to hier was my attempt:

[cloudera@quickstart ~]$ sudo hadoop fs -mkdir /solr/test_core
mkdir: Permission denied: user=root, access=WRITE, inode="/solr":solr:supergroup:drwxr-xr-x
[cloudera@quickstart ~]$ su
Password:
[root@quickstart cloudera]# hadoop fs -mkdir /solr/test_core
mkdir: Permission denied: user=root, access=WRITE,inode="/solr":solr:supergroup:drwxr-xr-x
[root@quickstart cloudera]#
Solution
