Whenever a job is completed, the Gearman plugin properly put the node offline.But Nodepool doesn't notice it.
The reason is that the Nodepool / Jenkins ZeroMQ bus is dead. Jenkins no more listen on port 8888 and Nodepool kindly ignore the fact it can't receive any ZMQ events.

That is probably because when restarting Jenkins there were duplicate process. Thus on the second instance ZMQ would have failed because TCP port 8888 was already bound.
