In Rational Software Architect (RSA), how do I add WebSphere Application Server 7 (WAS7) as a Server? As you can see in the screen shot, WAS7 is not an option. How do I add it? Thank you.

I am running Rational Software Architect for WebSphere Software (RSA) Version 8.5.1. I have installed WAS7 using the installer available in the was.7000.wasdev.nocharge.windows.amd64 package.
