I did my hadoop manifest as below:

  exec { "Namenode - Format dfs.name.dir":
    path    => '/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin',
    command => 'echo "Y" | hadoop namenode -format',
    user    => 'hdfs',
    unless  => "test -d $dfs_name_dir/image",
    require => Exec['Namenode - Create dfs.name.dir'],
  }

Regards,
Felipe
