Enabled the service, tried to reproduce with ramdisk: If i unmount the /mnt/ramdisk filesystem the file in the ramdisk just get's recreated by targetcli. Don't what i did differently with ramdisk. I am however able to reproduce with a USB Stick (/dev/sdc). --- ls o- / .........................................................................................................................
