PowerVS Disabling Automated Remote Restart, but move a instance another healthy host

The current Disabling ARR prevents moving to another host after a host when failure.

But we need new behavior to Disabling ARR - "A instance is moved to another healthy host . But it is not automatically restarted.

 When a host is failed, we don't want to wait until it is repaired. Therefore, we don't want to use Hard-Pin.

However, after an automatic restart, there are cases we simply don't want to release the services to end users.

EX, if a host failure occurs during a night batch period, we will need to check the recovery point and re-run the batch before releasing services.

Even during daytime disruptions, it is necessary to distinguish between committed and non-committed transactions.

If a VM is moved to another healthy host, we can immediately these processes after a host failure.
