Hyperion FDMEE not starting - Weblogic issue

Recently we had a scenario where our FDMEE service would start, but the application will not open up in Workspace.
After logging into Weblogic Console http://servername:7001/console we noticed that the ERPIntegrator service said Starting.

We applied the following fix:

1. Stop all FDMEE services

2. Move the WLS_DIAGNOSTICS(number).DAT files from the \Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\EPMSystem\servers\ErpIntegrator0\data\store\diagnostics folder and move to a different folder.

3. The files can be deleted after the managed server has started.

4: Start FDMEE services

Issue was with Weblogic DAT files in the folder being created on each service restart
