From documentation:

ABOVE
Indicates that the data set being added to the database can be allocated above the 64K cylinder line on a 3390-A device. Data sets that are allocated above the 64K cylinder line are allocated in increments of 21 cylinders so the final data set allocation is rounded up to the next multiple of 21 cylinders. This parameter is optional.
