Hello Alessandro,
Please use the Failover Cluster job type in the future, as it helps prevent additional full backups of the cluster disk whenever a failover occurs. This eliminates unnecessary full backups of cluster disks during failover (currently, your backups may be larger due to these extra fulls).
You can absolutely use these backups for restores; just keep in mind that a backup might miss a cluster disk if it was assigned to another node at the time the backup was taken. You can verify this by opening backup content (say via FLR) or by reviewing the job sessions properties. Thank you!
