The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Log on to application 12.1.3 instance
2. Source environment file
3. Run adcfgclone apps tier

The issue has the following business impact:

Administrator is not able to complete a DRC clone, and thus cannot release the instance to users.

CAUSE:
Incorrect host name in /etc/hosts file.

SOLUTION:
To resolve the issue test the following steps in a development instance and then migrate accordingly:
1. Ensure a valid backup of the instance exists.
2. Check whether server name is resolvable / pingable and listed in the following files:
A. /etc/hosts file or in
B. DNS Server
3. If the server name is not pingable, check the host entry in /etc/hosts and confirm the information is correct.
4. If any typos are found in the host entry, edit the /etc/hosts file with correct host details.
5. Run adcfgclone on apps tier to cascade the changes.
6. Retest the clone process and confirm it now completes successfully.
