You need the database servers to be up while you shut down/start up the 
fileservers, since one of the databases in question records which fileservers 
have which volumes and fileservers register/unregister volumes with that 
database during startup/shutdown.

If there's no need for the database servers themselves to be shut down, you can 
leave them up, but I'm not sure that actually gains you anything.
