Do you wonder which databases are actually taking up how much space but only have one huge ibdata1 in your /var/lib/mysql and the directories inside your mysql data directory don’t represent the actual database sizes?
Run from a mysql root console:
mysql> SELECT table_schema AS “Database name”, SUM(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024 AS “Size (MB)” FROM information_schema.TABLES GROUP BY table_schema;
+——————–+————-+
| Database name | Size (MB) |
+——————–+————-+
| information_schema | 0.00878906 |
| mysql | 0.62860394 |
| performance_schema | 0.00000000 |
| roundcube | 0.46875000 |
