• Key Concepts: 
  Unmap is a term used in SAP Memory Management (BC-CST-MM) to describe the process of freeing up memory that has been allocated to a particular application or process. It is used to ensure that the system does not become overloaded with unnecessary data and can continue to run efficiently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Unmap is typically used when an application or process is no longer needed and the memory it was using needs to be freed up. To unmap memory, the user must first identify which application or process is using the memory and then use the appropriate command to free it up. This can be done through the SAP Memory Management interface or through a command line interface. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When unmaping memory, it is important to ensure that all of the data associated with the application or process is removed as well. This will help prevent any conflicts or errors when the system is restarted. Additionally, it is important to monitor the system regularly to ensure that memory usage remains within acceptable levels.
