    Abstract: An improved information management system is described herein that provides on-demand or live mount access to virtual machine data in a secondary copy format. For example, instead of restoring all of the virtual machine data in the secondary copy format to a virtual disk that is then mounted to a virtual machine, the improved information management system can, in response to request to access virtual machine data in a secondary copy format, create a virtual disk having a universal network component (UNC) path and create a virtual machine configured to access data via the UNC path. Once created and booted, the administrator or user can attempt to access the desired virtual machine data via the virtual machine.
