I have been using this setup to backup multiple machines for about a year and a half. Works flawlessly.
Yesterday I had a strange problem. About 60 of my 130 applications just simply vanished. The machine seemed to otherwise work fine.
I wanted to do restore from an earlier time machine backup. But when I tried to boot with Cmd+R and choose Restore from Time machine the volumes did not show up.

All machines, NAS are on the same local network.
