You've set a timeout for Publish over SSH Plugin which has nothing to do with your build step (which is - or should be - Execute shell Script on remote host using SSH). You probably have a Send build artifacts via SSH post-build step that then fails due to that timeout.
The confusion here is that options for Publish over SSH Plugin and SSH Plugin are set in the same section.

I know only of a way to "downgrade" build result (via [Groovy Postbuild plugin](https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Groovy+Postbuild+Plugin)) say, from SUCCESS to UNSTABLE or FAILURE. It can't 'upgrade' the build result from UNSTABLE to SUCCESS. – malenkiy_scot Jul 02 '12 at 12:56

Thanks for your response, i am also found that we can't 'upgrade' the build result from UNSTABLE to SUCCESS – babu Jul 03 '12 at 06:33

Since you are executing a script from a non-TTY environment; The Jenkins is not able to get the exit properly, out of your script.
What you want is to exit immediately, after script execution! Don't want to wait for the entire timeout to happen and then disconnect improperly!
Solution: Make it Exec in PTY. (Please tick the check-box as shown in attached screenshot)
I had the same issue and it is working perfect for me now.
