The commit message doesn't explain the actual issue that it is trying to solve.
AFAICT we do not need the ceph.conf symlinked right away for normal PVE
operations. If it is not present in /etc/ceph/ceph.conf, the RBD and CephFS
connections will use the dedicated parameters to connect and authenticate
against the Ceph cluster, which are all present in the /etc/pve/priv...
directory.
And even in a newly set up HCI PVE + Ceph cluster, the symlink for the Ceph
config will only be created once you set up a Ceph service (MON, MGR, MDS, OSD)
on that node.
Even with a valid use case (see first line of my response), I am not sure if
the UI is the right place, as a user can still run into the same situation if
they use 'pveceph install' on the CLI without running 'pveceph init' afterwards.
Therefore, if there is a reason to always have the symlink, wouldn't it be
better to add it to the install routine to create the symlink if the
/etc/pve/ceph.conf file is detected?

Currently joining an already existing Ceph cluster won't create symlinks
from /etc/pve/ceph.conf to /etc/ceph/ceph.conf on the recently added
node. This can be remediated by running `pveceph init` but ideally
should be done by the web UI.
We remediate this by setting `configuration` to false if we reach the
branch where `operation.error.statusText` matches:
binary not installed: /usr/bin/ceph-mon
This allow us to configure this node and run `init` in the API.
