As mentioned, it would be best to reorder and install it, rather than extracting/copying over. There are newer versions of many of the components, mostly around apache webserver.

But Now, I will have to order separately as CBPDO etc. But I just thought that if it is possible to copy older File system of IBM Porting toolkit running under z/OS 1.13 and can mount it in z/OS 2.1 and run Porting tool kit. But I am still not sure, if this solution will work.
