How have you handled multiple tests? Is there a way to write custom xymon pages that scroll down instead of across?
Try this patch - it is against the current "trunk" version, but I think it will work on any 4.3.x release, since xymongen hasn't changed as far as I recall.
This defines three new "page" categories in the hosts.cfg file, "vpage", "vsubpage" and "vsubparent" that work just like the "page"/"subpage"/"subparent" definitions, except that they have the hostnames across, and the testnames down. "group" definitions are ignored.
Obviously you should not have too many hosts on a page.
You can what it looks like on http://www.xymon.com/xymon/vert/
(Not bad for a couple of hours work on a saturday morning, imho).
