The Caché installation directory is easy:

USER>w $System.Util.InstallDirectory()
c:\intersystems\healthshare_4\

The OS version is OS-dependent.

On Windows only:

USER>write $System.Util.GetOSVersionInfo()
6.1.7601

On Unix:

USER>set sc = ##class(%Net.Remote.Utility).RunCommandViaZF("uname -r",,.tOutput) write tOutput
2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64

USER>set sc = ##class(%Net.Remote.Utility).RunCommandViaZF("lsb_release -a",,.tOutput) write tOutput
