It will work. It may not give you the best performance.

ÂIs there a way to check and see if the parity is setup
correctly after I add that drive to the array?

As far as i know, no.

Should IBM have done this by default?

No, your BP ordered the system with a hot spare, IBM delivered it with
a hot spare. If you ordered the system with 4 disks in the same RAID
without a hotspare from your BP, your BP fucked up.
