"then once you find the destination" This is the part that is in question - Given a cluster and volume how do you find the cluster/SVM management address of the mirror/vault source/destination. You can easily get the cluster and SVM name, but those don't translate to the management addresses. As Tim said, you can get the ICL addresses from the peering relationship but I haven't found anything that will return the management address for a given peer cluster/SVM.
In our case, all our clusters have a uniform relationship between cluster name and management address so I can work around it - but I couldn't assume that for any other environment.

Wouldn't you already have this information before you start? Or if you start at the primary, then once you find the destination, you would then probe the destination to find out the rest of the information you need?
Sure, reduce human interactions but assume that you will need to probe both systems to find and match up the configuration. And if it doesn't match exactly, then you have to bail and let the admins decide what to do.
