How do I get the Weblogic system name in WLS 6.1 sp2 without creating T3Client

Question

Hi Folks,
In Weblogic Server 5.1, I get the weblogic.system.name using the following code:
T3ServicesDef t3services = T3Services.getT3Services();
String systemName t3services.config().getProperty("weblogic.system.name");
What is the counterpart for Weblogic Server 6.1?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The class doesn't seem to be documented in the normal documentation, but
you can get an overview of the methods by executing
javap weblogic.management.Admin
with weblogic.jar in your classpath.
Hope that helps,

The weblogic.server.name property in WLS 5.1 has been replaced by the
property weblogic.Name in WLS 6.X. Although it is possible to retrieve
this value by calling System.getProperty(), I would encourage you to
use
the new JMX services which have replaced our proprietary management
interfaces (T3ServicesDef, et. al.). For example, you could write aJMX
client to read the various properties of ServerMBean. To get started,
here is the link to our WebLogic JMX documentation:
Programming WebLogic JMX Services
<http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/jmx/index.html>
Please post any follow-up questions about JMX to the
weblogic.developer.interest.management.general_and_jmx newsgroup.
Besides writing a JMX client, you can also take advantage of the
following short-cut for retrieving the server name. The remaining code
for this example can be found in your WebLogic Server samples directory
under: ./wlserver6.1/samples/examples/cluster/rmi/HelloClusterImpl.java
private String getLocation(){
String toReturn = null;
try{
toReturn = weblogic.management.Admin.getServerName();
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("HelloClusterImpl failed getLocation");
e.printStackTrace();
if(toReturn==null){
return "";
}else{
return toReturn;
