Serializable serObj = session.save(wsVO);

Any idea which class i have to put my breakpoint in order to check the generated SQL,

Never had problems in IntelliJ-IDEA with debugging H code therefore could not comment on Eclipse.
But you do not need debugger to see SQL,
Simply specify <property name="hibernate.show_sql">true</property> in the session configuration, and it that is not enough and you want to see app the parameter bindings, then add log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=DEBUG in your log4j configuration.

As fo Update when you need save: you may need to specify unsaved-value in the mapping file which is usually null, in this case H generates insert when key is null, and update when key is something.
