Sorry, I'm still handling an IPA customer issue. The vault-copy is fine. 
I think ideally a copy command should look like this:

   $ ipa vault-copy <source> <destination>

But since generally the IPA command arguments are used to specify an 
object hierarchy (e.g. <IPA command> <parent ID...> <object ID>), I'm 
not sure if the above format would be consistent with other IPA commands.
