The action client also defines methods for canceling a goal which just sends a preemption request to the action server. If implemented correctly, the server then stops executing the goal as soon as possible. The method for canceling the goal in SimpleActionServer is cancelGoal.
There is no way to pause an action. You always need to cancel it and re-send the goal when you want to continue.
