After you made the modifications, if you want to restore the previous
state, just delete the modified logical volumes and rename the snapshots
so they take place of the original logical volumes.

I thought when you wanted to incorporate the changes(data stored in snapshot) into the original volume you had to merge them(lvconvert --merge).  Is this incorrect?
