Currently we don't have such feature to reset statistics on cluster level.
You have to use two PostgreSQL functions like pg_stat_reset_shared(text),
pg_stat_reset ().


There are a few statistics that are only kept on a per-cluster basis, such
as those reported in pg_stat_database and pg_stat_bgwriter. Since
pg_stat_reset only resets per-database statistics.


psql=# select pg_stat_reset();


psql=# select pg_stat_reset_shared('bgwritter');  -- It will reset the
statistics shown by pg_stat_bgwritter.
