Take a look at Nagios Business Process Intelligence (BPI). It might be what you need: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/Components/Nagios-Business-Process-Intelligence-%28BPI%29/details It lets you define a service that is an aggregate of any combination of hosts and services that you define.
