Bug Description

Unclear error message for soft reboot instances in error/resize pending status.

Current message is "Error: You do not have permissions to soft reboot instance: myVM", which is confusing. Need to implement better error messages, something like "Unable to <action> intances in <status> status". For instance, Unable to soft reboot instances in error status.

I agree this needs to be fixed, but I'm not sure what the proper way is because the error message is generated in the generic BatchAction's handle function. I don't want to change anything there because it may affect other cases.
