Login Counter

Whenever a user is logged in through the login servlet, the context id, user id, client identification string and a time stamp is saved to the database. If a database entry for this combination of context, user and client is already present, only the timestamp is updated. This means that the database holds the information for the last login of a specific user with a specific client. This data can be displayed with the logincounter tool.

Only logins are counted. Depending on the server configuration and the client, sessions may be reused when a user re-accesses the system even after a few hours or days. In this case the login timestamp is not updated. This means that logincounter does not necessarily show the number of active users.

The clients provided by Open-Xchange use the following client identification strings (this list is not yet complete):

Client client identification string
Open-Xchange AppSuite (Web UI) open-xchange-appsuite
Open-Xchange Server 6 (Web UI) com.openexchange.ox.gui.dhtml
Connector for Business Mobility (Active Sync) USM-EAS
Connector 2 for Microsoft Outlook OpenXchange.HTTPClient.OXAddIn
CardDAV CARDDAV
CalDAV CALDAV
Mobile Web App (legacy, OX6 generation) com.openexchange.mobileapp
OX Drive (native iOS client) OpenXchange.iosClient.OXDrive
OX Drive (native Android client) OpenXchange.Android.OXDrive
OX Drive (native Mac OS X client) OSX.OXDrive
OX Drive (native Windows client) OpenXchange.HTTPClient.OXDrive

A custom login page (see Open-Xchange_servlet_for_external_login_masks) may (and should) set a custom client identification string.

The output of logincounter can be filtered by client identification strings with the -r or --regex parameter followed by a regular expression matching the desired string(s).

Using the logincounter tool

 # logincounter --help
 usage: logincounter
  -a,--aggregate     Optional. Aggregates the counts by users. Only the
                     total number of logins without duplicate counts
                     (caused by multiple clients per user) is returned.
  -e,--end <arg>     Required. Sets the end date for the detecting range.
                     Example: 2010-01-1 23:59:59
  -h,--help          Prints a help text
  -r,--regex <arg>   Optional. Limits the counter to login devices that
                     match regex.
  -s,--start <arg>   Required. Sets the start date for the detecting range.
                     Example: 2009-12-31 00:00:00
