CMDB - Orphan Rule

As CMDB administrator, I want to define an Orphan Rule for every Principal CI Class so that CIs that should be cleaned up or have incorrect relationships are identified and can be corrected.
For Server CI Class, the rule should be to mark all those servers as orphan that are not connected to any application. For Any other CI not connected to another CI is to be considered as an orphan.

 

How can I achieve this?
