How to save ASR9k config?

Just inherited a decade+ (4+ year uptime) old asr9k and trying to get used to it. My standard wr mem or copy run start doesn't seem to work properly. Is it like mikrotik where you commit the changes and that's it; you don't have to save to a file?

The filesystem seemed to be empty the first time i logged in. When i did "copy run start" it created a new file called start, and when i ran it again it asked me to replace. same with copy running-config startup-config. dir /all shows only those two files i just created.

What's the deal with the config on the asr9k?

edit: It's so old it does not support ISSU. Also only 1 RSP. And the uplink/downlink are plugged into the RSP. totally defeats the purpose of having an ASR.

edit2: after dir'ing through all the filesystems, there is one "config" file stored in disk0 where all the software images are located. Is this the config thats loaded on boot?
