Hi Zdenek,

`sudo lvs --version` says :

   LVM version:     2.02.180(2)-RHEL7 (2018-07-20)
   Library version: 1.02.149-RHEL7 (2018-07-20)
   Driver version:  4.37.1

So that means it's version 2, right?

(I'm running the latest version of CentOS.)

Hmm - version looks fine

      $sudo lvconvert --merge centos/mySnap1
      centos/mySnap1 is not a mergeable logical volume


Hi

Aren't you using some quite ancient version of lvm2 ?
You need to use lvm2 which does support thin volume merging



Can you paste 'lvs -a' prior this operation ?

If the lvm2 tells you that 'mySnap1' is not mergable LV - then
it likely has no 'origin' to merge into.


Zdenek
