+## Checking for pending Elasticsearch migrations
+
+This section is only applicable if you have enabled the [Elasticsearch
+integration](../integration/elasticsearch.md).
+
+Certain major releases might require [Elasticsearch
+migrations](../integration/elasticsearch.md#background-migrations) to be
+finished. You can find pending migrations by running the following command:
+
+**For Omnibus installations**
+
+```shell
+sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:elastic:list_pending_migrations
+```
+
+**For installations from source**
+
+```shell
+cd /home/git/gitlab
+sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:elastic:list_pending_migrations
+```

+### What do I do if my Elasticsearch migrations are stuck?
