Massive Delete Operation
I am going to delete a table that has millions of records. Since it's with condition so there is no way to truncate the whole table, in the past, it has caused space issues.
Please suggest the best way to operate massive delete.

Wouldnt it fill up the log file?

How many rows do you have in the table?... total.
How many rows do you expect to be affected by the delete process?
