Multiple levels of groups. Hostgroups containing hostgroups.

To be able to better fight the resistance in migrating to Nagios from Big 
Brother, the supposing team would like a similar grouping of hosts and .. groups.

In other words, is it at all possible to have groupings like:

DC1-group ->  DC1-mail-group   -> smtp01-host + smtp02-host + ...
           ->  DC1-dns-group    -> dns01-host  + dns02-host  + ...
           ->  DC1-www-group    -> www01-host  + www02-host  + ...

DC2-group ->  DC2-mail-group   -> xsmtp01-host + ...


 From the top page. Ie, hostgroups containing hostgroups, or some other magic to 
achieve multiple levels instead of Nagios (apparent) limit of 2 levels?

I have tried hostgroup containing hostgroup, it does not work directly.

Sincerely,

Lund
