          may only be used by the registered Resource and returns the current status
          of the transaction. The operation is used when recovering after a failure.</p>

        <warning>
          <p><em>replay_completion/3</em> is blocking and may cause dead-lock if a child
            calls this function at the same time as its parent invokes an operation
            on the child. Dead-lock will not occur if the timeout has any value except 'infinity'.</p>
          <p>If the call is external incoming (intra-ORB) the timeout will not be activated.
            Hence, similar action must be taken if the Resource resides on another vendors ORB.</p>
