      2. Conversion to thin pool (w/o specified meta volume):
      [root@virt-494 ~]# lvcreate --yes  -n POOL1 -L 100M snapper_thinp
        Logical volume "POOL1" created.
      [root@virt-494 ~]# lvcreate --yes  -n POOL2 -L 100M snapper_thinp
        Logical volume "POOL2" created.
      [root@virt-494 ~]# lvcreate --yes  -n POOL3 -L 100M snapper_thinp
        Logical volume "POOL3" created.
      [root@virt-494 ~]# lvconvert --thinpool snapper_thinp/POOL1
        Thin pool volume with chunk size 64.00 KiB can address at most <15.88 TiB of data.
        WARNING: Converting snapper_thinp/POOL1 to thin pool's data volume with metadata wiping.
        THIS WILL DESTROY CONTENT OF LOGICAL VOLUME (filesystem etc.)
      Do you really want to convert snapper_thinp/POOL1? [y/n]: y
        Converted snapper_thinp/POOL1 to thin pool.
      [root@virt-494 ~]# lvconvert -T snapper_thinp/POOL2

        Nearest similar command has syntax:
        lvconvert -T|--thin --thinpool LV LV
        Convert LV to a thin LV, using the original LV as an external origin.
