Hi,
I see that the .ldf file of a my database has a huge dimension.
How i can resize or delete this file so it doesn't full all my HD?
Thank Pupo

Check out DBCC SHRINKFILE. Also make sure you do regular BACKUP LOG.

In addition to that you need to either set the recovery mode to Simple or
issue regular Log backups to keep it from growing so big again.
