I think your best scenario is one where you divorce yourself from the idea
of placing a single host's status across multiple pages.
For instance, in an installation with a couple thousand hosts, I too would
like to have a page where I could just have my conn status and subpages
filled with the rest of what I'm monitoring. However, I think you're asking
a little much of the system (unless Henrik wants to correct me) :)
What I've found myself doing most is grouping my hosts logically into
subpages and sorting by function. Once into the subpage, then all statuses
are completely viewable and available.
I will say this, though, I use the "All Non-Green" view more than anything
else in Hobbit/Xymon. It is our dashboard and our lifeline throughout the
day. We've caught a ton of things that other monitors have missed or fallen
short on via that page.
Perhaps looking at the system a different way will give you the coverage
you need.
Wish I could be of more help.

like this for every set of nodes .
When i do as suggested by Malcolm Hunter,
i get error of
Host a.b.c.d appears twice in bb-hosts! This may cause strange results.
and if i do as i given in my firsh query,
i get purple ssh.
kindly suggest.

Could you re-post this in plain text or something?
In the translation, everything got mangled and I've got all sorts of weird
colors and strange white backgrounds with illegible foregrounds.
I'd love to help you if I could, but if I can't even see the issue you're
having (or read the seeming mobile-texting speak in your email) then it'll
be very hard to give you answers.

Yes, but it makes more sense to me to define the tests on the "real"
entries instead of on the copies. That is not to say that your suggestion
would not work!

You have to enable the ssh test, like Jerald says. You do this on
each
"real" (instead of copy) entry.
So:
subpage rack900 <I>Row1-Rack6</I> conn
group-only conn
172.29.1.49 mn49.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
172.29.1.50 mn50.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
172.29.1.51 mn51.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
172.29.1.52 mn52.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
172.29.1.53 mn53.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
172.29.1.54 mn54.mgmt.acc.in # ssh
Except the "group-only conn" will not show the ssh column. So you only
need to do this for the "group-only ssh" groups.

Malcolm
