I want to protect from a total failure in the switch such as sup, loss of
power (if UPS and redundant PS is not present), etc.
I am not trying to failover an interface (spanning tree)
I want to have a second switch with a copy of the primary's configuration
and take over automatically once the primary fails.

Maybe I am confused....
If yo uwant redundant switches, you would implement spanning tree... This is
at layer two...not three, where routing takes place.
Now if you mean using it on say a cat 6509 with a routing module, then yes
you can implement it. But it would still be at layer three and not two.
You would not create redundant switches. Again, this is where spanning tree
comes into play.
