    Could you please open the file and post line 21 here? 
    Or else, copy entire file to bp.start_all.txt and upload the file.

      Hi Mariane,

      Apologies for delayed response:
      Below is the snippet you requested for 

      17 # Set umask to 022 to make sure files and directories
      18 # are not created with world writable permissions.
      19
      20 # Added below command during NBU configuration
      21 MYPID=$$; newtask -p NetBackup -c $MYPID
      22
      23 umask 022
      24

        Do you have a 'newtask' command on your system ?

        I checked on a Linux box I had to hand, but this was 7.5 and there was no newtask binary.

        7.6 may be different, or it may be available from a package.
