That's always worked for me...one thought would be if your quotes are out of balance somewhere before that entry...

A line like this should actually work; for me, it returns it without a quote:
DS name conn.rrd:value >1.0 COLOR=red "TEXT=Connect exceeds alert level"
This is on 4.3.21, however... it's possible this was fixed at some point in between.

Hearing no solution, I kept plugging away until I found one. Don't use any quotes whatsoever, and use non-breaking space codes between words: DS name conn.rrd:value >1.0 COLOR=red TEXT=Connect exceeds alert level ...resulting in this display line: Connect exceeds alert level

I set up a DS alert, which works very well except for one minor detail. No matter what I do, a lone double quote shows up in the alert message.
For example, here's the analysis.cfg line: DS name conn.rrd:value >1.0 COLOR=red TEXT="Connect exceeds alert level" ...resulting in this display line: "Connect exceeds alert level
DS name conn.rrd:value >1.0 COLOR=red "TEXT=Connect exceeds alert level" ...resulting in this display line: "Connect exceeds alert level
DS name conn.rrd:value >1.0 COLOR=red TEXT=Connect" exceeds alert level" ...resulting in this display line: Connect" exceeds alert level
For reference, I'm on Unix using Xymon 4.3.12 still. If this was problem related to this version and has been fixed, please let me know. Otherwise, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
