There are two timeouts you can set via the connect method in the cvprac client. Have you tried increasing the connect_timeout and the request_timeout via the connect method? Also the client post method does allow a timeout parameter to be sent.
Connect method info:
def connect(self, nodes, username, password, connect_timeout=10,
request_timeout=30, protocol='https', port=None, cert=False,
is_cvaas=False, tenant=None, api_token=None, cvaas_token=None): Login to CVP and get a session ID and cookie. Currently
certificates are not verified if the https protocol is specified. A
warning may be printed out from the requests module for this case.
Args:
nodes (list): A list of hostname/IP addresses for CVP nodes
username (str): The CVP username
password (str): The CVP password
connect_timeout (int): The number of seconds to wait for a
connection.
request_timeout (int): The default number of seconds to allow
api requests to complete before timing out.
protocol (str): The protocol to use to connect to CVP.
THIS PARAMETER IS NOT USED AND WILL BE DEPRECATED.
ONLY INCLUDED TO NOT BREAK EXISTING CODE THAT HAS PROTOCOL
SPECIFIED IN CONNECTION.
port (int): The TCP port of the endpoint for the connection.
If this keyword is not specified, the default value is
automatically determined by the transport type.
(http=80, https=443)
cert (str or boolean): Path to a cert file used for a https
connection or boolean with default False. If a cert is
provided then the connection will not attempt to fallback
to http. The False default sets the request to not verify
the servers TLS certificate.
is_cvaas (boolean): Flag for enabling connection to CVaaS.
tenant: (string): Tenant/Org within CVaaS to connect to.
Required if is_cvaas is enabled.
cvaas_token (string): API Token to use in place of UN/PW login
for CVaaS.
api_token (string): API Token to use in place of UN/PW login
for CVP 2020.3.0 and beyond.Post method info:
def post(self, url, data=None, files=None, timeout=30):
Make a POST request to CVP. If the request call raises an error
or if the JSON response contains a CVP session related error then
retry the request on another CVP node.
Args:
url (str): Portion of request URL that comes after the host.
data (dict): Dict of key/value pairs to pass as parameters into
the request. Default is None.
files (dict): Dict of file name to files for upload. Currently
only used for adding images to CVP. Default is None.
timeout (int): Number of seconds the client will wait between
bytes sent from the server. Default value is 30 seconds.

While uploading an image, I get a timeout as below. It looks like the connection timeout (default of 10s) is used instead of the request timeout (default of 30s).
After further checking, in fact it's caused by this issue https://github.com/psf/requests/issues/5263
For POST requests, is it possible to set something higher than 10s as default timeout? Cheers
