To findout what exactly happening, print command before execution. I mean
Code:
my $cmd = "\/usr\/openv\/netbackup\/bin\/admincmd\/bperror -backstat -l -hoursago 12 |awk '{ print \$19, \$12, \$14, \$16}'|grep -vi default|sort > \/var\/tmp\/error.out";
system("echo $cmd");

This will ensure you what exactly it is being executed??

nothing was produce in /var/tmp/error.out, its a blank file.
