Configure Client Tools After Installation

After you install the Client Tools, configure them to use the appropriate license file and to connect to the CA GovernanceMinder database.

Follow these steps:

1. Verify that the database server is running.
2. If your installation also includes a CA GovernanceMinder server, verify that it too is running.
3. Run the Client Tools.
4. Click File, General Settings, then click OK to confirm the error message.

   The Settings dialog opens.

5. On the License & Version tab, browse to the license file, then click Apply.

   A message lets you know that changing the license file requires restarting the application and exits when you click OK.

   Note: Use the license file that came with your installation package.

6. Close the dialog.
7. Do one of the following:
   • When your implementation includes a CA GovernanceMinder server, coordinate database interactions with CA GovernanceMinder server.
   • When there is no CA GovernanceMinder server, configure a direct connection to the database server.

   The Client Tools are configured and ready for use.
