You can create a host template definition which specifies the
hostgroup and contact for example:

  define host {
    name HAViewer
    contact_groups  +HAViewer
    hostgroups  +HAViewer
    register 0
  }

Then in the host definition for each host in this group, put, for example:

  use  HAViewer,generic-template

or if you want a host to be a member of more than one group, that's
fine you can put:
  use  HAViewer,HBViewer,generic-template

You will of course need  the contact and contactgroup definitions and
a hostgroup definition.  The hostgroup definition can contain the bare
minimum information, for example:

  define hostgroup{
    hostgroup_name  HAViewer
    alias  HAViewer - group of hosts which can only be viewed by the
HAViewer contact group
  }

You'll need also to make sure the contacts having a limited view are
not specified in "authorized_for_all_services" or
"authorized_for_all_hosts" in your cgi.cfg file.
