Subject: [EXTERNAL] Retrieving system name, serial, or OS version from RPG?

This may be something I used to know, but have forgotten.

I've retrieved information to identify a box via MI, and/or via system API calls, but is there an *easy* way to retrieve at least one of the three above-mentioned pieces of information (any one of them will tell me what I need to know) from ILE RPG?
