Hi list,

I have a question if Linux SW RAID stack can detect the presence of a 
new disk (say new SCSI disk attached to the system in runtime) 
automatically ?

No, it cannot.  You would need some user-space tool to detect new
disks and decide what to do with them.  Adding them to a raid might be
one option.
