RDMA/RoCE support on FortiSwitches

I am evaluating what it would take to implement RDMA/RoCE, specifically with Storage Spaces Direct.  I see where the Data Center Series switches (1000/3000) support IEEE 802.1Qbb Priority-based Flow Control (PFC) but I don't see mention of Data Center Bridging (DCB) or Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) which are typically also associated with implementing RoCE.  I've done some basic searching and find articles from Cisco, Mellanox, Juniper, Microsoft, etc, but I don't see any references to configuring RoCE on FortiSwitches.  Is it possible?  And if not, is it on any roadmap or do you recommend other technologies like iWARP?

You ever have any luck getting this information? 

I too see 802.1Qbb, but no mention of 802.1Qaz.

I wonder if anyone has ever used RoCEv2 over FortiSwitches?
