Description

If a vCenter task takes more than 20 minutes(default vCenter session timeout) to complete, then CS errors out with Socket timeout exception but the the task continues to run in vCenter.
Since there is mismatch in the state of the task between CloudStack and vCenter, If a task times out in Cloudstack we should cancel the running task in vCenter.
