Add pointer in Forward Lookup zone of your domain.

First boot script error or FQDN error is a very commonly happened problem occurred while installing VMware vCenter Server Appliance 6.0
Symptoms
Cause
This issue occurs if the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is not
resolvable during the vCenter Server Appliance's first boot. It means your supplied System Name is not valid.
Resolution
Step 1
At 1st check that your all ESXI host is added in
your desired domain.
Follow below process for adding host in domain.
From Host Node
Login Host >> Configure Management Network >>
Custom DNS Suffixes
Type your domain name in Custom DNS Suffixes
From DNS Server Manager
Step-2
Make sure your ESXI Host using IP address from same network of
your Desired Domain and DNS server address is added in Host IP configuration.
Login Host >> Configure Management Network >>
IPv4 Configuration
In this case my Domain network is 192.168.8.0/24
Step-3
All Host and desired vCenter Name, FQDN and IP
address should saved in your Computer’s (from which machine you are installing
Vcenter) etc.host section.
Computer must be logged in Administrative mode.
Follow bellow process to go etc.host
Local Disk (C)
>> Windows >> System 32 >> drivers >> etc >>
host (open this file in note pad)
Step-4
Creating Valid FQDN for the vCenter you want to install.
Add a pointer in your DNS Server Manager using your desired vCenter name which will create the FQDN.
Step-5
While Installing vCenter
A)
Be sure that your chosen SSO Domain Name is NOT SAME as your
Domain Name.
I used default vsphere.local
as SSO Domain Name.
B)
In System Name space use your previously created FQDN for the vCenter.
Hope your problem is now solved :)
