Joao it really depends how it is that you have setup your servlet container(s) - ie its hard to think about hibernate.properties in isolation to everything else.
What it will often come down to is whether you run a single instance or many. If you run a single instance you can depend on /opt/dhis2 but otherwise its not a good idea (in fact was an old stupid idea of mine). The "standard" way of setting env variables for tomcat seems to be, as jason says, inside $CATALINA_BASE/bin/setenv.sh or $CATALINA_HOME/bin/setenv.sh which of course raises the next question of how or where you set $CATALINA_BASE/HOME :-) Because there are so many variations on this theme I try to encourage folk to follow the process described in https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/implementer/html/ch20.html The install.sh script in mentioned in that documentation (which somehow doesn't appear) is available at https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-tools.
