Do you want make a map with parents?

In my case I created a forever pending host for parents and a group with
the same name:
City Host parent of Device1 Group parent of Hosts
          parent of Device2 Group parent of Hosts

And make groups with the same name. The first is for draw a better map,
and the second is for Nagios logic

I dont know any way to make that.

Sorry for my bad english.
