That's why MySQL disk usage currently is not counted towards a user's disk quota. The developers are working on a more reliable way of determining the disk usage of all types of MySQL databases and once that is done, then it is likely MySQL disk usage will be counted towards a user's quota.
ah, thanks for the clear up. I was always wondering about it. I do remember back in the day Cpanel didn't include MYSQL quote in the control panel. Then on their next version they did and now still do.

Thanks for clearing it up though, because I was wondering about that backup.
