HVR
Answerlink
Orphans are HVR objects where a child row was found but the repository did not include the parent row. This occurs when SQL statements are manually executed against the repository catalog tables, thereby resulting in the creation of orphan rows.
The most common case is when rows exist in the table HVR_TABLE pointing to channel ids that no longer exist in the table HVR_CHANNEL.
This is a sample of the orphans in HVRGUI.
You can manually delete orphaned rows from the hub without encountering any issues.
