Are the scripts actually *running* three times?
I believe Xymon builds a list of hosts, and then builds a list of tests for each host. It then performs the tests defined for each host. I'd expect your configuration to run each test once for the host, display all three columns/tests on each page, and show all three test results on the host's "info" page.
If what you want is a single test to appear on each page, then I suggest something like this in your hosts.cfg:
####################
page L1 TEST1
group-only testing1
10.0.0.1 site.address.domain # prefer noping testip testing1 \
testing2 testing3
page L2 TEST2
group-only testing2
0.0.0.0 site.address.domain #
page L3 TEST3
group-only testing3
0.0.0.0 site.address.domain #
##########################
The first defines the host, its IP, and all of its network tests. The slash on the end is to handle the short lines of my email client. It signifies a continuation of the line onto the next. You could split the line, or just make it very long.
The latter entries are there just for display purposes. The columns "info" and "trends" are included by default. Those columns are specific to the host and _not_ to the page. This means clicking on "info" on page L1 is exactly the same as clicking on the link on page L2 or L3.
