Hello there...
we have here a pretty big production environments, and even bigger
non-production.
I've configured xymon for both, but the guys that do the actual
monitoring objected to have alerts coming from non-production servers,
since those are mostly non-crucial - they don't want to see any of those
reds on their screens.
One way that comes to mind is using the "nopropyellow" (etc) tags on the hosts. We mix our production and test hosts on pages, but mark the test hosts not to propagate their alerts upward. Their test results appear on their own page, but not on their parent page. Also look into the "nonongreen" tag.

Note: the tags mentioned above affect the generation and display of the web pages. They do no affect alerts or the behavior of xymondboard.
