How to manage parallel processing for queue JMS/MDB?

Question

Hello, we are developing a system in WebLogic Server 10g (10.3.0) that contains multiple JMS queues associated with each in an MDB. We need know how manage the parallelism of the message for each queue? for example:
Queue 1: up to 4 messages in parallel
Queue 2: up to 2 messages in parallel
Queue 3: up to 5 messages in parallel
Can also perform this configuration from the WebLogic Server Admin Console?
Thank you very much,
Lucas.

Thanks a lot Tom for the reply, I have read about the descriptor setting 'max-beans-in-free-pool' and I searched this concept at the Administration Console without success.
I suppose other way is create a “Session Pools” under the JMSServer, and then create a “Consumer” and define the setting “Messages Maximum”. One of the disadvantages is that “Session Pools” don’t support JTA, from the documentation:
+Session pools enable an application to process messages concurrently. Session pools are now used rarely, as they are not a required part of the J2EE specification, do not support JTA user transactions, and are largely superseded by message-driven beans (MDBs), which are a required part of the J2EE specification.+
I continue reading the MDB chapter of the performance and tuning guide in the documentation, thanks for any contribution to the topic.
