Once I did something similar. You can use JMX to control the status of your configured JMS destinations. It is possible to start (resume) or stop (pause) a destination for receiving/sending or in both directions. Also you can fetch a list of all destinations and some other things. Just use JMX!
See: com.sun.messaging.jms.management.server.DestinationPauseType
or the list of possible operations:
com.sun.messaging.jms.management.server.DestinationOperations
example:
// obj = ObjectName of the destination
MyUtil.invokeOperation(obj, DestinationOperations.PAUSE, new Object[] { DestinationPauseType.ALL }, new String[] { String.class.getName() });
This is an app server independent solution and fits for GF2.1/2.1.1/3
