We attempted the attached sample codes with 8ub152 on Window Server 2016. It outputs as following C:\Users\primanga\Downloads>jdk1.8.0_152\bin\java.exe SystemProperty Windows Server 2016 10.0 amd64 It works as expected, so marking as fixed.

It is not suitable to set affected version as 9. Please reset it. I attempted similar sample codes with 9 promotion b156 on Window Server 2016 Datacenter x64. It outputs as following os.name : Windows Server 2016 os.version : 10.0 os.arch : amd64

Windows 2016 is a supported config in JDK 9: https://jdk9.java.net/jdk9_supported_platforms.html

This should be an enhancement requeste to add "Windows 2016", in the Java system properties.
