There are two ways of stopping a relay: normal shutdown and graceful 
shutdown. When doing normal shutdown all sessions are torn down and the 
relay is stopped.

With graceful shutdown, the relay doesn't accept more sessions and it 
will stop when active sessions are ended. This is what you probably 
want, so just do /etc/init.d/mediaproxy-relay stop-gracefully
