Currently, Ambari does not expose this HBASE_OPTS parameter via the UI. I'm assuming you mean hive-env.sh and not hive-env.cmd (.cmd is for Windows and Ambari does not currently support Windows).
To apply your workaround, you can go to the Ambari Server host, and edit /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/stacks/HDP/2.0.6/services/HBASE/package/templates/hbase-env.sh.j2. This is a template file that Ambari uses to generate the actual hbase-env.sh that gets deployed on your HBase hosts. This assumes you are using HDP2. If HDP1, you should edit /var/lib/ambari-server/esources/stacks/HDP/1.3.2/services/HBASE/package/templates/hbase-env.sh.j2 instead. After editing the template file, run "ambari-server restart". Then restart your HBase Service through the Ambari Web UI. From now on, hbase-site.xml will have your tweaks. It is important to keep in mind that you may need to reapply this workaround when you upgrade Ambari in the future.
