      1. What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      When attempting to generate an sosreport, and a plugin encounters an exception while attempting to capture a file, the sosreport process exits. Customer requests that sosreports plugins skip files that cause exceptions and proceed with the sosreport generation attempt.

      2. Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      sos

      3. How reproducible:

      Always

      4. Steps to reproduce

      1. Run the sosreport command.
      2. Encounter an exception in any plugin.

      5. Expected results

      Ideally, the sosreport display/log and error regarding the exception and continue to generate the sosreport. 

      6. Actual results

      The sosreport process terminates with a Python traceback error.
