Ceph backend on RedHat 7

Hi,

I just tested Seafile pro 6.2.0 with a ceph cluster (10.2.10) as storage backend under Scientific Linux 7.4 (CentOS/RedHat 7). I followed the instructions in the server manual. The migration script was running fine, but after logging into seafile, an error occured and the libraries couldn’t be accessed.
As mentioned under “Notes for Ubuntu 16.04”, I had to delete the bundled libraries (librados.so.2, libstdc++.so.6, libnspr4.so) from seafile. After that seafile was running fine with the ceph backend. Maybe you should mentioned this in the server manual. And maybe this problem will no longer exist, if you compile seafile unter CentOS 7.

It’s mentioned here https://manual.seafile.com/faq/ceph.html and here https://manual.seafile.com/deploy_pro/setup_with_ceph.html and here https://manual.seafile.com/deploy_pro/migrate_to_ceph.html and there you can find Ubuntu packages without these libraries: https://download.seafile.com/d/6e5297246c/?p=/pro&mode=list

I’m running seafile under Scientific Linux 7. The server manual only talks about Ubuntu when it comes to deleting the libraries. That’s a bit confusing, because you have to do this under RedHat/CentOS/SL, too.
