OCFS2 is a shared disk filesystem similar to GFS{,2}.  Some of the
others you mention I would consider to be distributed filesystems in
that not all nodes need to (or possibly are allowed to) see the same
physical storage.  They can probably all be considered clustered in the
sense that multiple nodes play in the same logical storage.
