http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectdefinitions.html#hostgroup

"hostgroup_members: 	This optional directive can be used to include  
hosts from other "sub" host groups in this host group. Specify a comma- 
delimited list of short names of other host groups whose members  
should be included in this group."

Hosts can also be members of multiple hostgroups by specifying them on  
the members line of the hostgroup definitions or comma separated in  
the hostgroups parameter of the host definition.
