Why do you think you need a clustered filesystem then? None of those 
services require one... I wouldn't recommend adding the complexity of a 
clustered filesystem unless you really have to; all it will do is reduce 
the reliability of the system. Each of those applications can work with 
their own standalone local filesystems...
