Are you sure that the pool members are 'forced offline' and not 'disabled'? What are you seeing in TMSH (CLI) that indicates the members are up?

 

If the pool member is disabled, TMSH will show 'session user-disabled' but the 'state' will still represent what the monitor returns. So you can be 'user-disabled' but in 'up' state if the monitor is successful.

 

When 'forced offline' the 'state' should show 'user-down' in TMSH.
