I changed my disklist the other day, as you might remember from
previous post regarding data timeouts on my /var partition.

It is now at nocomp-high

I don't remember what is was before, was it "comp-high-tar" ?

|   DUMP: You can't update the dumpdates file when dumping a subdirectory

You switch from gnutar to dump.  Gnutar can do subdirectories, dump
cannot do.
Add "program GNUTAR" to the dumptype "nocomp-high" (and better name
it "high-tar" if that one does not already exist).
