# create_database_backup Create a backup of a specific MySQL database Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `create_database_backup`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server/create-database-backup ## Facts - Tool: `create_database_backup` - Server: cPanel MCP Server (`0xhayd3n/cpanel-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/0xhayd3n-cpanel-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/0xHayd3n/cPanel-MCP-Server - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_database_backup", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_database_backup is rated Medium This tool creates (writes) a backup file but does not delete, modify, or destroy existing data. The backup process itself is reversible and non-destructive to the source database. However, backup creation consumes storage resources and could impact system performance, warranting medium severity. It is less critical than Destructive actions since the original data remains intact. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_database_backup' and description 'Create a backup of a specific MySQL database' indicate creation of a new backup object/artifact." ## Use case AI agents use create_database_backup to create or update resources in cPanel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your cPanel MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**.
