Extracting an ID file from a vault
On occasion it may be necessary to extract a physical copy of an ID file from a vault. For example, an auditor might require access to an ID file to read encrypted data. Or an administrator might need to provide a copy of an ID to a user who does not have a network connection. A copy of the ID remains in the vault after extraction.

Perform the following steps as a Domino administrator or vault administrator:

1. Open the People & Groups tab of the Domino Administrator, and select the Person document of the user whose ID will be extracted. If the ID is for an inactive user, select any Person document.

2. Click Tools - ID Vaults - Extract ID From Vault.

3. If the ID is for an inactive user, type the hierarchical name of the user.

4. If the name of the vault that holds the user ID is not filled in for you, type in the vault name. The name of the vault is filled in if the user's effective policy refers to it.

5. Type the ID password.


6. Click "OK."

7. Specify a local file location for the copy of the ID file.

8. If you did not type a password in step 5, provide a new password when prompted.
