The /etc/hosts file contains "ip address fully qualified name abbreviated name". If I execute hostname command on the server it shows the fully qualified name. However, reviewing the logs the installer is finding the abbreviated hostname and fails because it is not a fully qualified name. You can override the install with a command line option, however I was hoping to continue using the EM 12c Upgrade Console to complete the upgrade.
