These tests are part of JDK workspace (look under jdk/test/sun/management/jmxremote/bootstrap/). The test verifies that RMI registry over SSL works. There is no separate peer - everything is done in one Java VM, the code for server part is in in JDK. jdk/src/share/classes/javax/rmi/ssl/SslRMIClientSocketFactory.java creates SSLSocketFactory, RMI writes few bytes to socket output stream and flushes it (sun/rmi/transport/tcp/TCPChannel.java:229).

Adding -Dcom.sun.net.ssl.enableECC=false makes the test pass.
