Resetting statistics

To get more accurate statistics, you can remove statistics from nodes that are no longer available. You can also reset statistics, either for a single attribute of a node or for an entire node.

There are three available commands for resetting statistics. Their availability depends on the statistics you want to reset.

removeStale

Removes all statistics from nodes that are no longer available. You can only invoke this command on the Available node.

reset

Resets the statistics for a particular attribute of the current node. You can invoke this command from any node except Available, Administration, or Java Virtual Machine.

resetAll

Resets all statistics for the current node. You can invoke this command from any node except Available, Administration, or Java Virtual Machine.

To reset statistics using NexJ System Admin Console:

1. In NexJ System Admin Console, navigate to the Statistics page.
2. Find and select the node whose statistics you want to reset by expanding the node for your NexJ application, for example, nexj.finance. The statistics for the selected node display on top of the details area. Any available commands display on the bottom of the details area.
3. [Optional] Remove statistics from nodes that are no longer available.
   1. Select the Available node.
   2. Double-click the removeStale command on the bottom of the details area. The Invoke resetStale command dialog opens.
