This is how it looked when we had the two cables in place. With a "show stack" command, here is what we saw:

Standby u2 - protocols ready, can failover
Current stack management MAC is 609c.9f23.a380
# Stack-port1 Stack-port2
1 up (1/2/1) up (1/2/4)
2 up (2/2/1) up (2/2/4)
Now, lets change the config for 6 ports total for stacking.
Core(config)#stack unit 1
Core(config-unit-1)#multi-stack-trunk 1/2/1 to 1/2/3 and 2/2/1 to 2/2/3
Core(config-unit-1)#
AT THIS POINT, I HAVE NOT PLUGGED IN THE CABLES INTO PORTS 1/2/4-1/2/6:
Core(config-unit-1)#multi-stack-trunk 1/2/4 to 1/2/6 and 2/2/4 to 2/2/6
Error! 1/2/4 has no connection. Please use "stack-trunk".
Core(config-unit-1)#
AFTER SEEING THE ERROR MESSAGE, I PLUG IN THE CALBES INTO THESE PORTS:
Core(config-unit-1)#multi-stack-trunk 1/2/4 to 1/2/6 and 2/2/4 to 2/2/6
Core(config-unit-1)#exit
Core(config)#exit
Core#sh stack conn

trunk probe results: 2 links
Link 1: u1 -- u2, num=3
1: 1/2/1 (T0) <---> 2/2/1 (T0)
2: 1/2/2 (T0) <---> 2/2/2 (T0)
3: 1/2/3 (T0) <---> 2/2/3 (T0)
Link 2: u1 -- u2, num=3
1: 1/2/4(T1) <---> 2/2/4(T1)
2: 1/2/5(T1) <---> 2/2/5(T1)
3: 1/2/6(T1) <---> 2/2/6(T1)
CPU to CPU packets are fine between 2 units.
Now, notice that above there are == signs instead of -- signs. This is to show you there are multiple cables plugged into one port group. Just something to notice.
Also, there is plenty of bandwidth between the two units and plenty of redundancy.
