Thanks for looking it over Mike to verify I was attempting it correctly.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this problem? Also, can I send images with this email thread? Is it best for me to send links to images or create a video to describe the problem better?
Here is what I have tried to troubleshoot:
* I don’t see any relevant entries in the /opt/observium/logs files. * Observium is updated to the latest subscription edition. * I will also note that Traffic Accounting for billing does graph data but all data in “Bill Summary” is blank. That’s the only other oddity that I’ve noticed about my installation. * I’ve tried this with multiple Cisco devices (Catalyst, Nexus, ASR, etc.) with the same failed result. * Using different options for the rule such as Port ifIndex, ifName, even > rather than equals and still get the immediate failed result.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Goal: Attempting to make “aggregate” graphs by calculating port bandwidth from multiple devices. For example, a graph that shows the total bandwidth of IP transit or IXP Peering ports that are not in LAG groups on Cisco gear.
Problem Statement: When creating a “Group” of ports I get an error in red that says “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.”
Problem Description:
1. Click “Create New Group” in the GUI
2. Select Entity Type “Port”
3. Give group name of “TestGroup1”
4. Select “Device” from the dropdown, default to “in” and select a Cisco router in the dropdown that is already present and working in Observium
5. Click “Add rule” select “AND” choose “Port ifIndex” “equals” enter in the field the ifindex
a. I’ve also tried adding just one or even multiple rules with “OR’s” results in this message
b. I’ve also tried adding the port with “Port ID”, “Port ifDescr”, “Port ifName” and others all result in this failure message
c. I’m getting the port_id, ifindex, ifName, etc from the “Data” tab when viewing a Port of the Cisco in Observium
6. Click the bottom right, green “Add Group” and receive the error message: “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.”
Can someone direct me to how to make such graphs? And/or explain what I might be doing wrong that I cannot create Port Groups?
