This is passed when a job is scheduled in SAS Management Console using the -LOG option. If you are not scheduling but running sasbatch.sh manually you might need to just add the -log option pointing to the path and your job name. The batch server's logconfig.xml should append a datestamp and ".log" to that. So for example when you deploy a job in SAS Management console the command it builds looks like this:
<path-to-BatchServer>/sasbatch.sh -log <path-to-BatchServer>/Logs/<JobName>_ -batch -noterminal -logparm "rollover=session" -sysin <path-to-SAS-program>

What scheduler are you using to start the batch jobs? In the case of LSF at least logs are set up automatically and you can configure the log location in SMC.
