As I recall, this was endemic to DF/DSS at the time. The z/OS 1.12 version would not (by default) read the "old backup" (z/OS 1.11 or below).
There is/was a PARM= or ctlcard option that needed to be specified in order to read a dump dataset created by the "old version". Of course , given the age of this apar (circa 2015) it may not be applicable. i.e. the data being restored would need to have been created prior to the installation of this APAR.
