To create and access the test folder under the root directory of the Flash on member switch 3:
<Master> mkdir slot3#flash:/test
%Created dir slot3#flash:/test.
<Master> cd slot3#flash:/test
<Master> pwd
slot3#flash:/test
Or:
<Master> cd slot3#flash:/
<Master> mkdir test
%Created dir slot3#flash:/test.
To copy the file test.app on the master to the root directory of the Flash on member switch 3:
# Display the current working path. In this example, the current working path is the root directory of the
Flash on member switch 3.
<Master> pwd
slot3#flash:
# Change the current working path to the root directory of the Flash on the master switch.
<Master> cd flash:/
<Master> pwd
flash:
# Copy the file to member switch 3.
<Master> copy test.app slot3#flash:/
Copy flash:/test.app to slot3#flash:/test.app?[Y/N]:y
%Copy file flash:/test.app to slot3#flash:/test.app...Done.

Configuration synchronization mechanism

IRF uses a strict running-configuration synchronization mechanism so all chassis in an IRF fabric can work
as a single node, and after the master fails, other members can operate normally.
In an IRF fabric, all chassis get and run the running configuration of the master. Any configuration you
have made is propagated to all members.
When you execute the save [ safely ] [ backup | main ] [ force ] command or the save file-url all
command, the system saves the running configuration, as follows:
• If the configuration auto-update function (the slave auto-update config command) is enabled, saves
the configuration as the startup configuration on all member switches for the next startup.
If the configuration auto-update function is disabled, saves the configuration as the startup
•
configuration on the master for the next startup.
By default, configuration auto-update is enabled.
