I would list it by mount point rather than device name, i.e. /usr/local.
However, if you want to enter the device name, it would be:

  /dev/md/rdsk/d10

Note the rdsk instead of dsk.

It depends on which dump program you use.  If you use GNU tar you can
list individual subdirectories of mount points.  If you use something
like ufsdump, you usually cannot do subdirectories.

When the other file systems being dumped can do incrementals and there
is enough tape space left to do this file system.  My guess is you added
a bunch of new disks which have to have a full dump done first and that
squeezed out the possibility of doing this one in any form.  Once the
first full dump is done, things should settle back down, assuming you
have enough tape capacity.
