  1. Open the Analytics link for the environment with Oracle Analytics Server setup using the URL appropriate for your environment in the sample format, http://<hostname>:<port>/analytics.
  2. Click Catalog to view the content in the Shared Folders.

    2. Enable the check boxes to keep the permissions and timestamps.
