I'm unfamiliar with the procedure you mention. For future reference, if you have XI Enterprise Edition, the easy way to do this is go to:
Configure -> CCM -> Tools -> Renaming Tool -- here you can rename hosts/services and keep their performance data.

To associate the old data to the new name, simply rename the corresponding xml and rrd files to the new name. Then the perfdata will go to the new host/service name.
The paths are:

/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/<HOSTNAME>/<SERVICENAME>.rrd
/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/<HOSTNAME>/<SERVICENAME>.xml

If you still run into problems then please provide screenshot of the steps you took, thanks.
