This sounds like Hostgroup Hierarchy.

Opsview has a feature where we group hostgroups in a hierarchical  
fashion and then the /status/hostgroup link shows you the complete  
summary of all those hostgroups and all the host/service states  
underneath. We do this by utilising the NDO information and running  
some complex SQL.

There is more information here:  http://opsview.org/hostgrouphierarchy
