A cylinder is not a track. Depending on the DASD type, a cylinder might be
composed of 12 tracks for example. z/VSE and z/OS people have those numbers
in their heads, z/VMers count in cylinders.

You need to implement DRDA over IP on your DB2/VM servers. DB2Connect provides

One possible solution that I can think of is DB2 Connect from IBM. It
