Hallo Denise, I am not sure, what you mean with 'active user count'. If you need to look on DB load (number of active sessions), then Sayans statement will help you. If you need to check, how many users were logged in , you can check DBA_HIST_SYSSTAT, statistics 'logons current' , which includes also background processes (equals select count(*) from v$session).
