If reservations for this compute resource exist, the costs for each datastore are also populated based on
the cost profile.
Configure a Storage Cost Profile
Fabric administrators can create storage cost profiles and associate them with storage paths to provide
more detailed storage cost information. Storage cost profiles override the storage cost in any cost profile
assigned to the compute resource.
