This sounds like a good scenario for IP SLB, and or a CSM card...
With a project this big, why are you not working with your local Cisco SE?
that's what we pay them for.
I would make a layer 2 trunk between the switches, keep the servers in the
same vlan, and get a load balancers (if you cant afford the CSM blades, the
css11500 is still an affordable option)

Subject: Help! Redundancy between two Layer 3 Switches
Hi Gents,
I have a situation here and would like your assistance. I am preparing for
my ccie lab and this problem is killing me.
I have two Cisco 6506 switches which i would like to configure for high
availability (preferably both active at the same time). I also would like to
run OSPF between the two switches
I have servers that will be connecting to these switches. These servers are
in pairs ( i.e two servers both providing the same service to the same
clients and with same IP address)
I plan to connect each server in a pairing to a different 6506 switch to so
that in case of failure of one switch or one server, users can still access
this service via the second server.
The problem is ,
If a server fails , how do the switches route / switch to the second server
( in the pairing)
How do i connect these servers to the network bearing in mind they will be
accessed with the same IP Address
Please advice
