The main problem you have there is that the same panels feed 2 mppts. Each mppt must have it's own panels. The mppts 'track' to determine the best V, and to have 2 on the same panels is counterproductive. Especially on a restart when both are deliberately applying a wide V range several times, they are likely to interact and not work well.
How you're working the 'Backup' ones though isn't clear.
Thank you. If that diagram will be changed to the below diagram, will the problem solve?
If one MPPT can handle 4 of those strings, remove the "backup" MPPTs and keep them in storage as spares (or use them in other projects).
Thank you.
If we have to use 4 charger for each system, will the second diagram work correctly?
Wire each MPPT to the busbar (assuming you have a busbar), with a fuse for each positive wire (properly sized) (so four "Fuse 2").
Take the DC loads from the same busbar, not from the inverter. With a separate fuse for the DC load positive wire.
I don't know what's with those diodes you added in the revised diagram.
Make sure that the batteries are equally charged.
The diodes are added, because It's seems, there was reverse current between 2 battery banks.
