I have a cgi script that uses the xymon xymondboard command to get a list of the servers that have the sslcert column, extracts the certificate information and constructs a table of the urls, certificates and expiry dates. I don't have the script handy here, but essentially it does something like this:
xymon localhost "xymondboard test=sslcert fields=hostname" | whileread hostname
do
MSG=xymon localhost "xymondlog $hostname.sslcert"
[ do stuff to process $MSG ]
done
[ post process the collected data ]
It doesn't create a Xymon page, it just emits the necessary headers for a browser to receive a page, followed by a a big html <table>, with options to sort by different columns, or download as a CSV.
This is all done on-demand, whenever anyone visits the CGI link. Obviously something similar could be run from cron, stuffing the extracted information into a database for later queries to generate monthly, quarterly and yearly reports.

I'd like to have a page that has the current status of a set of combo tests (all called 'health') and next to that columns for yesterday's availability report, last 30 days, last month, and year to date.
Has anyone done something like that already?
