You are using iSCSI I assume?  The ESX Hardware for the new Host is exact to the existing hardware?  If you want to disable the un-used adapters, that would have to be done in the BIOS.

Is the storage presented to the new ESX(i) Host?  Did you rescan your storage adapters?  If this is a net new presentation, you may have to reboot ESX(i) to see the new LUN(s)
