    I contacted cpanel and they told me the following works. Has been tested 

    /*backup*.sql
/*backup*.tar
/*backup*.tar.bz2
/*backup*.tar.gz
/*backup*.zip

    So the above will make sure any sql , tart etc that has the word backup in it inside all folders are excluded from backup

    You can add “cpbackup-exclude.conf” in a global or user level.

    Global:
    /etc/cpbackup-exclude.conf

    User level:
    /home/username/cpbackup-exclude.conf

    The entries would be like this:

    */backup-*tar.gz
*/backup-*zip
*/backup*gz
*/cpmove*
