BLADE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING A SHORTEST PATH TO TRANSMIT PACKETS AMONG BLADE SERVERS OF THE BLADE SYSTEM

A blade system and method establishes a shortest path to transmit packets in blade servers of the blade system. The blade system reads status information of each blade server using a shelf manager and connection information among the blade servers. A shortest path among the blade servers is calculated by a depth-first search (DFS) algorithm according to the connection information. The blade system sets a configuration file of the each blade server to transmit the packets among the blade servers according to the calculated shortest path.
