If you started a Glance server manually and did not use the & backgrounding function, simply send a terminate signal to the server process by typing Ctrl-C

If you started the Glance server using the glance-control program, you can use the glance-control program to stop it. Simply do the following:

$> sudo glance-control <SERVER> stop

as this example shows:

$> sudo glance-control registry stop
Stopping glance-registry  pid: 17602  signal: 15
