    OPR just means that the operations are to be dome manually by an operator
    AVR means that there is a communications problem between the library and the controller.

    Been running NetBackup since version 3.4 and rarely seen these status.  If we do then reboot the Media Server.  Difference?  I don't know beyond the 2nd technote & don't really need to.

    If you are seeing this status in your Device Monitor, we will happily help you to troubleshoot.

    There is no point in trying to make sense of theory.

    AVR means that the drive is in robotic library but the robot has communication issue(as Srumpr2(BOB!) wrote), or the drive is standalone drive(configured as not in robotic library). OPR mode has no meanings for robotic drives.

    BTW, what is your problem?
