When executed from a node in a peer-to-peer topology, this procedure requests a response from every other node in the topology. By executing this procedure and reviewing the corresponding responses, you can guarantee that all previous commands have been delivered to the responding nodes.

sp_requestpeerresponse is used in peer-to-peer transactional replication.
sp_requestpeerresponse is used to ensure that all commands have been received by all other nodes before restoring a database published in a peer-to-peer topology. It is also used when replicating data definition language (DDL) changes made while a node was offline to estimate when these changes arrive at the other nodes.
sp_requestpeerresponse cannot be executed within a user-defined transaction.
