No, cluster suite is not needed for GFS2.  Cluster Suite is 
kind of a RHEL4 term anyway.  To use gfs2, all you need is a
Linux kernel that has it.  Hopefully you take a very recent
kernel so that the code has fewer bugs in it.
Oh, and you probably want a recent gfs2-utils package too
so you can do things like mkfs.gfs2 and gfs2_fsck.
