In Cisco Data Center Network Manager for SAN (DCNM-SAN), there are two modes of operation: Standard and Advanced. The Advanced mode includes more advanced features than the Standard mode. The question asks which configuration is available only in the Advanced mode.

A. IVR: IVR stands for Inter-VSAN Routing, which allows communication between hosts in different VSANs. IVR is available in both Standard and Advanced modes of DCNM-SAN.

B. VMpath configuration: VMpath is a feature that enables automatic pathing and failover for virtual machine I/O traffic in Fibre Channel environments. VMpath configuration is available in both Standard and Advanced modes of DCNM-SAN.

C. Zoning: Zoning is the process of dividing a Fibre Channel SAN into logical groups, so that members of one group cannot communicate with members of another group. Zoning is available in both Standard and Advanced modes of DCNM-SAN.

D. Template-based provisioning: Template-based provisioning is a feature that allows administrators to automate the process of configuring and deploying SAN resources using templates. This feature is only available in the Advanced mode of DCNM-SAN.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. Template-based provisioning is available only in Cisco DCNM-SAN Advanced mode.
