MSP430FR573x #pragma PERSISTENT issues

Unfortunately, I have to come back to this topic. My #pragma PERSISTENT doesn't seem to work as it should.

I'm working with CCS 6.1.1.00022. In my code, there is an array defined which should be stored in FRAM

#pragma PERSISTENT(my_variable)
uint8_t my_variable[256];

The linker file looks okay:

FRAM                    : origin = 0xC200, length = 0x3D80

SECTIONS
{
    GROUP(ALL_FRAM)
    {
       GROUP(READ_WRITE_MEMORY)
       {
          .TI.persistent : {}                /* For #pragma persistent            */
          .cio        : {}                   /* C I/O buffer                      */
          .sysmem     : {}                   /* Dynamic memory allocation area    */
       } ALIGN(0x0200), RUN_START(fram_rw_start)
      ...
    } > FRAM

But when I compile the project, my memory map file looks as follows:

MEMORY CONFIGURATION
         name            origin    length      used     unused   attr    fill
----------------------  --------  ---------  --------  --------  ----  --------
  RAM                   00001c00   00000400  00000206  000001fa  RWIX
  FRAM                  0000c200   00003d80  00002344  00001a3c  RWIX

SECTION ALLOCATION MAP

 output                                  attributes/
section   page    origin      length       input sections
--------  ----  ----------  ----------   ----------------
.bss       0    00001c00    0000015f     UNINITIALIZED
                  00001c00    00000100     (.common:my_variable)

So the pragma doesn't put my_variable into FRAM. How can I fix this?
