Thanks to Johan Brusche and Pat O'Brien for their help.

The solution to the problem was found by moving the advfs domains off dsk10
and then zeroing the existing disk label and writing a new disk label to
dsk10. Then I added a partition of dsk10 into the rootdg group and then
removed from the group. Which showed the same info with the voldisk list
command as with other disks that are not in the LSM config. After this I
tried to execute the volsave command, which then completed sucessfully. The
only thing I can think that caused this problem that the lsm config must have
got screwed up after the upgrade from 4.0G to 5.1A
