Hi Mark,

you could create a custom view/page as described in the man page of xymongen under "ALTERNATE PAGESET OPTIONS" and "BUILDING ALTERNATE PAGESETS" You can use the group-only and group-except there too. If we take the example from the xymongen manpage it would look like this:

ospage win Windows ossubpage win-nt4 Windows NT4 osgroup-only cpu|disk|msgs NT4 File servers

and so on.

Hello,

I'm looking to remove a particular column from our nongreen.html view and I'm not sure how to accomplish this. Is there some setting I cannot locate that lets me add --ignorecolumns= to the XYMONGENOPTS specifically for the nongreen view?

Looks like today I'll be answering my own question. I located the following option:

--nongreen-ignorecolumns=

(I was searching for "non-green" not "nongreen")

...

Also, any tips on creating a custom page with only the specific columns I want to view?

Still hunting for a tip on how to do this. I'd like to have a page that only displays the status of one column. I thought xymongen was a bit more flexible, but it appears to actually create the entire batch of pages when run. Do I have to try to build a report page?

The page set requires I create a tag and manually apply this to the hosts definitions?!

...

Simple - just put a tag "OS:win-xp" on the host definition line.

That is ridiculous; certainly there has to be a way to automatically identify any host that is reporting column "foo" and generate a page only showing those hosts and only column "foo".

Please tell me I don't have to manually attempt to identify every single host in my configuration and try to decide if it should show up on this page.

Well, at the moment I don't know of any other way doing this. You could of course write a script that checks for the test you want to have on that page and then adds the tag to each host line in hosts.cfg that matches your criteria.
