The MySQL location would use the hostname for your database connection. As the MySQL databases are hosted on different servers, there is not a server path for this. The MySQLdump path would be the path you would like the database dump stored in. Usually you will need to use the the absolute path of your hosting for this. An example of this would be:

/home/content/t/e/s/test/html/_db_backups/daily.sql

Where-
/home/content/t/e/s/test/html/ – is the absolute path of your hosting plan
_db_backups/ – is the folder you would like the file stored in
daily.sql – is the name of the file

Details on locating the absolute path of your hosting plan can be reviewed in this article:
