What you're trying to do is not really the way the Xymon webpages was thought out to be. Xymon treats a single host as a whole, you want to see services instead. So you have ssh for all of the hosts in one group, conn for all of the hosts in another and so on. The Xymon webpages works differently - it will group by host, not by service.
So this issue is not resolved in 4.3.x, and unless someone provides a different tool for building the webpages, it will not be resolved. The standard bbgen tool cannot be made to work the way you want it to.

Hi, we have xymon4.2.2 and rhel 5.2 os. we have a server and 100 clients.
We have 3 sub clusters and above bb-host file. Now our problem is that we have restriction on subcolumns argument to BBGENOPTS as this is common for all three subcluster pages..so if we want to add one extra test in one of the subcluster, we need to increase subcolumns aruments..e.g.all subclusters have 8 tests, so subcolumns=8, now if we want to configure one more test in subcluster2 only, how we should do that? because if we do subcolumns=9, all our display page will be disturbed as there are 8 tests for subcluster1 and 3 and 9 tests for subcluster2. So how to add or remove any service without disturbing the main display
our hostfile is like:
page rack001 <I>Compute cluster</I>
title <I>Compute Nodes</I>
subpage rack900 <I>Row1-Rack6</I> conn group-only conn 172.29.1.49 node49.mgmt.acc.in # 172.29.1.50 node50.mgmt.acc.in # 172.29.1.51 node51.mgmt.acc.in # 172.29.1.52 node52.mgmt.acc.in # 172.29.1.53 node53.mgmt.acc.in # 172.29.1.54 node54.mgmt.acc.in #

?
