Format options: /ORPHANS /NOORPHANS (default) Specifies whether CDO searches for definitions with no directory names and no owners. The /ORPHANS qualifier also checks relationships to ensure that they have valid owners and members. When you also specify the /FIX qualifier, it places homeless definitions in a directory called CDD$ORPHANS. CDO creates directory names for them while the VERIFY command executes. The /FIX qualifier deletes relationships without valid owners and members. CAUTION If you specify the /ORPHANS qualifier and the /LOG qualifier, CDO generates text for every element that is not an orphan. This could potentially be a very large number.
