PE Size (Mbytes) 4
Total PE 2287
That makes the size of the disc 4 x 2287 = 9148 Mb (about 9 Gb).
It is possible that you specified a "-s <size>" parameter on "pvcreate" and artificially made the disc smaller.
Perhaps that the disc is a "dd" copy from a 9 Gb disc.
Could even be that the O/S is so old that is does not know how to deal with 36 Gb discs.
