LGTM - Deployed a full stack Nicira environment: 3 controllers, a manager,
a service node and 2 KVM hypervisors, all inside my development VM:
```
# virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
42 nsxmgr1 running
43 nsxcon1 running
44 nsxsvc1 running
48 kvm1 running
49 nsxcon2 running
50 nsxcon3 running
52 kvm2 running
54 cs1 running
```
Then I ran the Marvin tests:
```
# nosetests --with-marvin
--marvin-config=/data/shared/marvin/mct-zone1-kvm1-NVP.cfg -s -a
tags=advanced,required_hardware=true
test/integration/smoke/test_nicira_controller.py
test_01_nicira_controller
(integration.smoke.test_nicira_controller.TestNiciraContoller) ... ===
TestName: test_01_nicira_controller | Status : SUCCESS ===
ok
Nicira clusters will redirect clients (in this case ACS) to the master
node. ... === TestName: test_02_nicira_controller_redirect | Status : SUCCESS
===
ok
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 2 tests in 766.910s
OK
```

> When setup in a cluster, NSX controllers will redirect calls to the cluster
> master. However, the NiciraNvp plugin does not handle those redirects
> correctly. The underlying HTTP client will transparently redirect calls, but
> the plugin will aways override the target host to the initial value.
> The underlying HTTP library being used at the moment is Apache HTTP Commons,
> which has been superseded by Apache HTTP Components which introduces a new
> architecture. This library should be upgraded to the new architecture since
> this will make it easier to transparently handle redirects,
