"remote"?  It appears to be the OP's local system.  (Point of view; I 
understand.)

"TRacks" or "CYlinders", but not "BYTES"?  (I RTFM.)  Bad design for
the needs of the OP who probably knows the size of the source file
only in bytes.  And may not be familiar with the geometries of
various IBM storage subsystems.

Doesn't IBM nowadays recommend allocation in bytes rather than tracks?

Simply, FTP should support:
    QUOTE SITE PRIM=## SEC=## BYTES
