 The files in this directory are used by the k8s-e2e-external-storage CI job.
 This job runs the [Kubernetes end-to-end external storage tests][1] with
 different driver configurations/manifests (in the `driver-*.yaml` files). Each
-driver configuration refers to a StorageClass that is used while testing. The
-StorageClasses are created with the `create-storageclass.sh` script and the
+driver configuration refers to a StorageClass that is used while testing.
+
+The StorageClasses are created with the `create-storageclass.sh` script and the
 `sc-*.yaml.in` templates.
 
+The Ceph-CSI Configuration from the `ceph-csiconfig` ConfigMap is created with
+`create-configmap.sh` after the deployment is finished. The ConfigMap is
+referenced in the StorageClasses and contains the connection details for the
+Ceph cluster.
