Zenoss is using Zope for it's Configuration Management, specifically the ZODB, 
Zope's object database, to store most things for Zenoss. This excludes events, 
which are stored in MySql.

So you would not be able to manipulate Devices through a table view.

You can use zendmd, though, a CLI for Zenoss, which I find very useful.
With a bit of python scripting you can automate or batch process certain things 
related to devices, etc.

Having a quick google I found this:

This should give you an idea of what it can do.

HTH,
