Default Re: BES Upgrade 4.1.6 to 5.0.2

I have read the section and I followed it.
1. Changed the BESMgmt.cfg file with "Upgrade" option and named Database Entry.
2. Ran create BESMgmt.cfg - which successfully upgraded the Schema at the end
3. Disabled services/ shutdown old bes
4. Detached DB from SQL2000
5. Copied and attached it to new server SQL2008
6. Installed BES as documented on New server by selecting existing configuration DB
7. Entered same BES name here as the OLD one

Clicking NEXT at this point gave me the attached Error.

I see that the documentation says "In the Accounts and Folders dialog box, in the Name field, type the name of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server that you want the BlackBerry Administration Service to display.", but because I am doing a cutover installation, I believe I should use the same name (as knottyrope mentions above) and not a New name, so why get this attached Error ?
