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.
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.
