I recently found the bb command with the hobbitdboard to work pretty well for grabbing info on a specific test and specific host:
# ./bbcmd
# bb 136.180.70.203 'hobbitdboard <full_host_name_as_in_bb-hosts>.conn' <full_host_name_as_in_bb-hosts>|conn|green|OrdAstLe|1258268784|1260293536|1260295336|0|0|136.180.70.203|-1|green <!-- [flags:OrdAstLe] --> Tue Dec 8 12:31:25 2009 conn ok
// notice the single quotes for the DATA area, as the "bb" command only takes two arguments, you have to encase these in quotes
Getting that command to run in a script is a little more complex and required me to do an su to the xymon user ...
CMD='/usr/lib64/xymon/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop '${HOSTNAME}'"'
echo ${CMD}
su - xymon -c "${CMD}"
Some other useful stuff is in there too, check out http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/man1/bb.1.html.
Hope that helps.
