Answer 1

According to this (https://github.com/openshift/origin-server/blob/master/cartridges/openshift-origin-cartridge-jbossews/metadata/manifest.yml) websockets should be enabled. Does this work locally on your own development server?

You might also try using WildFly instead of Tomcat and see if that gives you better results with websockets.
