ALLO

ALLOCATE

This command could be required by some servers to reserve sufficient storage space to accommodate the new file to be transferred. The Size must be specified by a decimal integer representing the number of the logical byte size of space to be reserved for the file.For files that can be appended a maximum size can be specified as well. This command is normally followed by either the STOR or APPE commands. The ALLO command is treated as a NOOP (no operation) by those servers which do not require the file size to be specified by the ALLO command.
