MySQL Disk Usage Tracking
If you've run an update for cPanel 11.24, you may have noticed that your MySQL databases are now showing up with 0MB of disk space in use, even though the database sizes are much larger. With the update comes a new option to enable MySQL disk usage tracking, but it is not enabled by default.
By making the following change, you will be able to enable this new feature and retain your MySQL disk usage tracking.
- Log into your cPanel server by SSH.
- You will need to edit /var/cpanel/cpanel.config file with a text editor.
- Replace "disk_usage_include_sqldbs=0" with "dis_usage_include_sqldbs=1"
- Once you have made the change, you will need to run the following:
- /scripts/update_db_cache
Once the script completes you will be able to see the correct MySQL database sizes again.
