[Xymon] What determines displayed columns?

By default Xymon will display every test it has data for. You can use the
'xymon' command to find out what these are these: xymon <xymonhostname>
'xymondboard host=<hostname>'. You can control which tests get displayed by
using the "group" directive in your hosts.cfg file. See the hosts.cfg man
page for details.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
