How about running an event command based on a filter that specifies your 
critical device?  Not quite sure whether what you want is to change the 
severity of all events from this device in the Event Console, or whether what 
you really want to do is generate an alert such as an email??

Either way, you should be able to do it.  An event command simply runs a 
shellscript but you can have it call a Python script and pass parameters to 
that script from your event using the TALES syntax for device and event 
parameters ( ${evt/<field>} and ${dev/id} ).  If what you really want to do is 
run email then  you shouldn't need to create a python script - just hand-crank 
your email command, again with evt / dev parameters as required.

For a bit more info on event commands, you could pull my Zenoss Event 
Management paper from

Cheers,
Jane
