Display Splunk ServerName on a dashboard

We run Splunk in pooled mode so we connect using something like http://splunk.company.com. Behind that glip we have a bunch of searchheads.

I would like to create a dashboard where as part of the dashboard it shows the specific serverName I am connected to.

Any ideas on how to get to this information using a search or advanced XML?

You can get it with

| rest /services/server/info splunk_server=local | fields serverName
