HP A7500 Series Command Reference Manual page 121

If the file specified by file-url does not exist, the system creates the file and then saves the configuration to
the file; if the all keyword or chassis chassis-number slot slot-number option is not specified, the
configuration is saved to the active MPU of the IRF fabric.
Use the save [ safely ] [ force ] command to save the current configuration to the root directory of the
storage media on a member switch, and specify the file as the startup configuration file.
Whether the save [ safely ] [ force ] command or the save file-url all command+Enter takes effect on all
the MPUs or on the active MPU of the IRF fabric depends on whether the configuration file auto-save
function is enabled.
Related commands:
saved-configuration, and slave auto-update config.
