Thank you for the reply, but I'm trying to figure out exactly which tables I need to be backing up. This is why I was curious if there is a full description of the tables documented somewhere. I can't seem to find docs on it though, so I'm going to try it through trial and error.

However, I do believe you are correct in that the default settings are probably appropriate for my usage.

In typical ejabberd servers with typical instant messaging users, the larger mnesia tables (in size, not in number of elements) are (from larger to shorter): vcard, roster, offline_msg, pubsub_item, private_storage, last_activity, caps_features, ...

Which tables can be lost, and which not? it depends on your usage, but usually the default configuration used by ejabberd is the best one for common usage.
