Zenoss is doing a dns lookup to try and get the IP of the device your trying to add. You can add an entry into /etc/hosts on the zenoss server then add your new entries. Also make sure /etc/nsswitch has files,dns listed to correct this.
Or you could setup proper dns entries for the names of the devices you want to monitor, which is what I would recommend. I think you might also be able to sort of trick zenoss by adding the device by IP and using the rename feature in the device page after the device is model'd to rename it to whatever you like. Either of those should work.
