Noting that a workaround solution for changing the sort order of the State column is provided in this post: Sort Order for State in Alarm Status Table
The solution is to enable the isAcked and isActive columns, set their width to zero, and set the sort order of isAcked to ascending. Then set the activeSortOrder to 0:isActive, 1:isAcked, … etc. example 2: priority, 3: activeTime and so on.
