So I have been trying to test IPV6 in our lab enviroement and I am running into an issue configuring HSRP. The issue I am running into is that when I try to apply a specific ipv6 address for the HSRP it does now allow me to pick the address.
Router 1 (6509 running 12.2(33)SXI3)
interface Vlan202
description IPV6 TEST
ipv6 address 2013:1:2:3::2/64
no ipv6 redirects
standby version 2
standby 202 ipv6 autoconfig
standby 202 priority 120
standby 202 preempt delay minimum 30
I had to choose autoconfig and was not able to apply the following command:
R1(config-if)#standby 202 ipv6 2012:1:2:3::1/64
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Has anyone else expierence this or know what I am doing wrong?

Scott,
You've probably already resolved this, but you shouldn't need to put the prefix length at the end of the standby command.

Scott,
The feature you are trying to invoke (HSRP Support for Global IPv6 addresses) is not supported until 12.2(33)SXI4
In the version of IOS you are running the only HSRP address available is the link local address based on the HSRP group address (standby 202 ipv6 autoconfig in your config example).

Hope this helps
