Check out Tandem machines. They do something similar with two cpus that continously compare results and back up to a previous point if there is a miscompare. This requires alot of hardware as well as software.

I believe there are some other companies that also do this or have done this in the past.
In related hardware highend IBM mainframes come with more CPUs than the system can support at one time. The extra CPU(s) will take over a job of one of the currently working CPUs fails.
Ofcourse all of this stuff is very high end and very expensive to build.
