The first time you deploy a mapping, you do not have to perform any additional tasks if a mapping has persisted mapping outputs.

When you redeploy a mapping, the persisted mapping outputs are retained in the repository. You can run the infacmd ms deleteMappingPersistedOutputs to delete persisted outputs from the repository.

The mapping outputs state is not backed up when you back up a mapping.

If you rename a mapping output, you cannot use the persisted mapping output value from a previous deployed mapping run. If you recreate a mapping output with the same name, you can use the persisted output value.
