Upgrading from Core to XI - some issues

I'm in the middle of testing out an upgrade from Core 3.0.6 to XI 2012R2.2. Generally it seems to be going well requiring only minor fixes to the configuration files. However, I recently ran into a rather time intensive problem. The host files imported mostly intact, but the services are being a bit stubborn. The issue is the max_attempts, check_interval, retry_interval and notfication_interval values didn't carry over. The system is requiring that I touch each service entry with the updated information. Is there a way to apply a template to provide this information? Thanks in advance.

Additional info
We're upgrading from a 32 bit Suse 10 box to CentOS 6.4 (64 bit) VM.

Did you use the config import prep tool, prior to importing the config files?

Yes. Create a service template with just those options configured. Then, once all your services are imported, add the template to those imported services.
