Multiple snapshot disk attached to same worker node from different namespaces which cause the "Failed Snapshot" in the backup because of the limitation in VMware end.

Issue where snapshot getting failed on daily backup jobs runs when we have multiple PV/PVCs from different namespace attached the same worker node because of the VMware end there is limitation to handle the multiple tasks at same time. When the first snapshot initiated the vmx file get locked and it will not allow second snapshot task until first snapshot task get completed by VMware end. So, when the second snapshot task goes to VMWare end to the VM it throws the error message "The operation is not allowed in the current state." because of the vmx file get locked by first task. Only vmx get released on the first task complete. This led into failed snapshot on the namespaces.

Suggestion we need to keep trying the snapshots tasks instead of failing. So, that will allow to eliminate the failure.
