Hi Armon, We've recently patched an issue that affects handoffs here https://github.com/basho/riak_core/pull/153
If the issue repeats for you, as well as the logs it would be very useful if you could follow the instructions from the pull request above ro the 'riak_core_handoff_manager:status().' command against all nodes. The pull request works around an issue where it looks like the kernel has closed a socket (no evidence of it any longer with netstat/ss) but the erlang process is still stuck in an receive call from it (gen_tcp:recv/2 to be more precise). Please let us know if you hit it again. Best, Jon.
