Answer 1

This exception will come in case your server is based on JDK 7 and your client is on JDK 6 and using SSL certificates. In JDK 7 sslv2hello message handshaking is disabled by default while in JDK 6 sslv2hello message handshaking is enabled. For this reason when your client trying to connect server then a sslv2hello message will be sent towards server and due to sslv2hello message disable you will get this exception. To solve this either you have to move your client to JDK 7 or you have to use 6u91 version of JDK. But to get this version of JDK you have to get the MOS (My Oracle Support) Enterprise support. This patch is not public.
