Found this little gem while scouring the net.

These are files that store the information read and used by WHM (as of 11.23.6)

A few more!

These are a few scripst that you can use to achieve the same results of their WHM equivalents:

Initialize quotes: /scripts/initquotas
Compile Apache: /scripts/easyapache (you can pass additional options - see EasyApache 2 docs)
Update cPanel: /scripts/upcp
Enable/disable tweak settings: /scripts/smtpmailgidonly on|off
Change PHP API and suExec settings: /usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf
Suspend an account: /scripts/suspendacct <user> <reason>
Terminate an account: /scripts/killacct <user>

Here is also a really cool Cpanel backup script which can be used for rsyncing backups to another server or doing restores.
