Is there a way to create multiple custom non-green displays?

I have a large environment where each department is only concerned with thier own devices.

I think the easiest way to do this would be via the "Critical systems" view. Usually you only have one of those, but there is nothing wrong with having several of them, and the criticalview CGI has an option so you can run it with different configuration files.

Something like this might be what you are after. This is a CGI script that generates a config file for the criticalview CGI with the hosts on the "windows" page, and then builds a "Critical Systems" page for only those hosts:

----- cut here and save in the Xymon cgi-bin directory ----- #!/bin/sh

Pick only hosts on the "windows" page

PAGE="windows"

Get red ones as priority 1

xymon 127.0.0.1
"xymondboard color=red fields=hostname,testname page=$PAGE" |
awk '{ print $1 "||||1|||" }' > /tmp/crit_$$.cfg

Yellow ones get priority 2

xymon 127.0.0.1
"xymondboard color=yellow fields=hostname,testname page=$PAGE" |
awk '{ print $1 "||||2|||" }' >> /tmp/crit_$$.cfg

Build the webpage

. /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/cgioptions.cfg $XYMONHOME/bin/criticalview.cgi $CGI_CRITVIEW_OPTS
--config=/tmp/crit_$$.cfg

rm -f /tmp/crit_$$.cfg exit 0 ----- end cut -----

In fact, if you leave out the "page=$PAGE" filtering, this would give you the normal "All non-green" webpage, but with the additional filtering and ack-options of the "Critical Systems" view. In real-time instead of the updated-once-a-minute view ...

See the xymon(1) manpage if you want to know more about how you can filter hosts retrieved from the xymondboard command.
