Move Deduplication Folder to New Server

I have an existing deduplication folder on one server, and I am trying to move it to a new 2012 Windows server with more storage. Copying and pasting the folder from the old server to the new did not work as expected.

I want to be able to access the data currently in the deduplication folder on the new server. How would I do this?

Thank you, I have been using this document. Since I do not have an existing deduplication storage device on the new server, I had nothing to rename. When I copied the old storage device into its new location (E:\) it is still named "BackupExecDeduplicationFolder". Is that name going to pose a problem?

I can get as far as creating the deduplication disk and then I receive the following error:

Unable to create the deduplication disk storage. It directs me to http://entsupport.symantec.com/umi/V-287-40960-39685. I have tried all the related solutions and none have worked.
