Chris Dolan commented on RIVER-376:
-----------------------------------

For the unchanging subset of information, like hostname, this could simply be a 
service attribute.

> Get VM specific information from only a service proxy

> It would be useful, if given a service proxy a caller were able to retrieve 
> some useful subset of information about the remote VM in which that proxy 
> came from.
> For example, if I had a proxy I might want to know the hostname of the 
> machine it came from, or even the amount of memory available to it, memory 
> used, number of threads etc.  Such information could be made available by 
> using JMX, however, this leaves callers having to perform some new kind of 
> interrogation on the proxy, rather than just calling methods on it.  This 
> could lead to additional environment changes or headaches.
> It would be nice to be able to do something like:
> VmAdmin vmAdmin = (VmAdmin) ((Administrable)myProxy).getAdmin();
> vmAdmin.getHostname();
> The underlying implementation of VmAdmin is up for design/debate.  This was 
> first discussion on the dev mailing list here:
