Memcached troubles

Hello everyone,

I have a memcache which is set up like this in core.php:

Cache::config('default', array(
'engine' => 'Memcache',
'duration'=> 86400,
'probability'=> 100,
'prefix' => Inflector::slug(APP_DIR) . '_',
'servers' => array(
'web1.XXX.XXX 11211',
'web2.XXX.XXX 11211'
),
'compress' => false,
));

where web1 and web2 is the name of two webservers which balance the
load on the site by diverting some requests to either one.

It works fairly well (or so I thought) until I tried implementing a
maintenance mode for the site. I added this line:
Cache::write('maintenance', $this->data['admin']['maintenance']);

and then I check in beforeFilter() for

if (Cache::read('maintenance') == 1)
redirect('maintenance');

this works some of the time which leads me to believe that only one of
the servers are picking up on this value. Have I set it up somehow
wrong? Shouldn't both servers see 'maintenance' with the value set by
Cache::write?

Thank you,
Jonas
