How do we replace skydomes with iray?

This is probably an easy one for the experts but not for me! When I'm doing an internal scene, there are windows, etc where the outside world seeps through. In my case, this defaults to white (chequerboard on the render viewport). I was able to do this with 3Delight skydomes but these don't work with iray. How can I sort this out?

This one is for Skyboxes, but this works the same for a skydome:

And in case you are using a HDRI for rendering, just go to Environment in the render settings, and set "Show Dome" to "On".
