Caution: This method of shutting down an SSA is not recommended except as a last resort,
because all processes currently running on the SSA will be interrupted resulting in loss of frames.
Precaución: No se recomienda utilizar este método para apagar los módulos SSA. Recurra a él
sólo como último recurso, puesto que interrumpe todos los procesos del módulo en
funcionamiento, lo que podría resultar pérdidas de frames.
