backstore created in "deactivated" state

Hello,

I am trying to setup a loopback setup using "targetcli".  I am
following the steps mentioned at site -
http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/Loopback

I issued the following commands:

/backstores/fileio> create  dev_file_disk file_disk 10mb
/loopback> create
Created target naa.5001405f29525ad4.


However, I see the fileio backstore created in "deactivated" state:

  | o- fileio ..................................................................
[Storage Objects: 1]
  | | o- dev_file_disk .................... [file_disk (10.0MiB)
write-back deactivated]

How can I activated the fileio backstore (dev_file_disk)?  My
understanding, if all is setup right (fileio backstore active), a new
entry /dev/sdx  will be created.  Is that right?


I have a related question.  If I create multiple fileio and/or block
backstore.  Is there a way I can control which of the fileio/blockio
are created a loopback, rather than all of them.

Thank you,
Ahmed.
