CORBA26 — Issue on Assemblies and descriptors

Looking a the <Assembly> interface, a question arises. When providing
the assembly descriptor location, a logic description of the
application to deploy is provided. But, how are set the pysical hosts
to be used for the deployemnt of the logic configuration? No hooks is
provided to the deployment tool (as there are no interfaces for the
tool) in order to provide these information, and no operation is
available on the assembly interface to do so. Is there an extension of
the <Assembly> interface in order to contain this information?
Otherwise, how could the application be deployed?

Thinking about what should be provided, it is necessary to assign a
logical name contained in the assembly descriptor to a physical host
name. Maybe an extension to the assembly descriptor filled at
deployment time is the solution? The second possible choice crossing
my mind is an IDL structure (in fact sequence of structure) that could
be provided to the assembly object.
