Abstract

Embodiments described herein detect on-the-fly whether requested subclient data resides on a certain type of storage device, such as cloned Windows Dynamic Disks. The system presents mount requests for the identified disks in a manner that allows for mounting of the disks, where the disks would not be otherwise mountable. For instance, in some embodiments the information management system generates substitute metadata for disk mounting purposes, such as for the purposes of browsing and/or restoring data.
