Research direction
The issue does not identify a file, test, or entry point for the connection behavior. Start by locating the vCenter connection and request-handling code in pyvmomi, then determine how a stopped vCenter is detected and where a configurable timeout would apply. Done means a stopped vCenter fails within the specified timeout, with coverage for that behavior.
