What I find very strange is that even when removing the failover IP
address for one of the interfaces, the synchronization still takes
place, that's why I wondered if defining it on each interface was really
needed.

I'll try to upgrade ASAP and see if it's better.

BTW our upgrades with full backup take a very very long time because the
full backup script includes Squid's cache. Yesterday I've tried to
modify it to add "--exclude var/squid/cache" on tar's command line and
launch the full backup manually, but the cache is still included in the
full backup. Any idea why ?

Shouldn't the full backup script, if the squid package is installed,
ignore squid's cache directories ?

TIA
