z/OS Connect EE ARM support installation

Customers using z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition v3.0.53 need to install z/OS ARM feature manually.

z/OS Connect EE supported ARM feature but ARM feature was not shipped with z/OS Connect EE install package.

Customers using ARM feature with z/OS Connect EE needs to install ARM feature by Install Utility application.

Customer founds they need ARM feature additionally when they installed z/OS Connect EE and tested ARM feature.

It's unfriendly and confusing to customer.

IBM should ship the zosAutomaticRestartManager feature as standard with z/OS Connect EE installation package.
