    cPanel Access Level:
    DataCenter Provider
    rpm -qa |grep -i mysql

    then 'rpm-i' to remove all the mysql binaries. Then:

    rm -rf /var/lib/mysql

    touch /etc/mysqlupdisable
    touch /etc/mysqldisable

    (the above keeps cpanel from trying to reinstall it during updates)

    And disable mysql from chkservd by going into WHM > service manager
