## Uploaded Files Integrity
-The uploads check Rake task will loop through all uploads in the database
-and run two checks to determine the integrity of each file:
+Various types of file can be uploaded to a GitLab installation by users.
+Checksums are generated and stored in the database upon upload, and integrity
+checks using those checksums can be run. These checks also detect missing files.
-1. Check if the file exist on the file system.
-1. Check if the checksum of the file on the file system matches the checksum in the database.
+Currently, integrity checks are supported for the following types of file:
+
+* CI artifacts
+* LFS objects
+* User uploads

+## Clear exclusive lease (DANGER)
+
+GitLab uses a shared lock mechanism: `ExclusiveLease` to prevent simultaneous operations
+in a shared resource. An example is running periodic garbage collection on repositories.
+
+In very specific situations, a operation locked by an Exclusive Lease can fail without
+releasing the lock. If you can't wait for it to expire, you can run this task to manually
+clear it.
+
+To clear all exclusive leases:
+
+DANGER: **DANGER**:
+Don't run it while GitLab or Sidekiq is running
+
+```bash
+sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:exclusive_lease:clear
+```
+
+To specify a lease `type` or lease `type + id`, specify a scope:
+
+```bash
+# to clear all leases for repository garbage collection:
+sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:exclusive_lease:clear[project_housekeeping:*]
+
+# to clear a lease for repository garbage collection in a specific project: (id=4)
+sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:exclusive_lease:clear[project_housekeeping:4]
+```
