Had an offline chat with Kishanthan and we found that CarbonUtils or CarbonUIUtils will not provide us the answer. Reasons are that both classes will append /services or /carbon to the returned url. Another fact is that we have to pass in a Axis2Configuration for certain methods. We found out that there are system properties called 'mgt.transport.http.proxyPort' & 'mgt.transport.http.port' which can be used to construct the full server address. I'll be writing a jaggery module on this and I'll share it once it's done.
