sparsbundle folder is located in /data/.timemachine,currently OS6 doesn't have restore option,you have to copy data in SSH.
you might need to change the owner after copying done.
example from my Ready104
root@Ready104:/data/.timemachine# ls -la
total 32
drwxr-xr-x 1 ReadyNAS 96 100 Jan 15 16:51 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 198 Jan 2 15:01 ..
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 166 Jan 15 16:41 .AppleDB
