1. A method, comprising: receiving an event including information provided by a user, wherein the event corresponds to an active volume in a storage layer of a system changing to an inactive volume; creating a discovery job in response to the event using the information provided by the user; initiating the discovery job with a discovery collector; and performing rediscovery of a device based upon the event and the information provided by the user using a protocol independent ontology model, wherein the device comprises a first one of an array in a storage layer, a switch in a network layer, a host in a compute layer, or a NAS device, wherein the array, switch, and host are accessed by different protocols, wherein the device comprises the inactive volume in the storage layer and the rediscovery of the inactive volume is performed based on the event without rediscovering other volumes in a storage pool containing the inactive volume, and wherein the event is modeled as a namespace in a resource data framework (RDF), and wherein the namespace refers to rediscovery of the inactive volume.
