# oz0 tenant orphan-pause

> Usage and flags for oz0 tenant orphan-pause.

For: Operators and developers looking up a command.

A team that owns routines or inventory items and has no person as a member, or no person as its admin, is orphaned: doctor lists it and the tenant's admins are told. With --days N (1 to 365) its routines also pause once it has been orphaned for N days, with the reason; they never resume by themselves. --days 0 turns it off (the default).

A governance setting: turning it off or lengthening it takes --reason, and with four eyes on, another admin's approval. Without --days it shows the setting.

## Usage

```bash
oz0 tenant orphan-pause <tenant> [flags]
```
