9.6.1 is pretty old, and since then we've fixed a number of bugs in
pg_dump and/or pg_restore that could cause problems in parallel restores.
Please update to current (9.6.12) and see if the problem still occurs.
If it is still there, you'd need to provide more details, like what SQL
command fails exactly.
