Conforme indicado por PeskyGnat em esta resposta você tem que criar um arquivo logging.properties na pasta:
Depois de configurar este arquivo, você pode ver os logs em:
No meu caso, este era o Solaris, então o primeiro caminho era:
E a segunda:
Como informação extra, para facilitar a localização do arquivo de log, você pode digitar no shell Bash o seguinte:
ls -altr
E este é um exemplo de como o arquivo logging.properties:

# Default Logging Configuration File

# You can use a different file by specifying a filename
# with the java.util.logging.config.file system property.
# For example java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=myfile

# Global properties

# "handlers" specifies a comma separated list of log Handler
# classes. These handlers will be installed during VM startup.
# Note that these classes must be on the system classpath.
# By default we only configure a ConsoleHandler, which will only
# show messages at the INFO and above levels.
handlers= java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
# To also add the FileHandler, use the following line instead.
#handlers= java.util.logging.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
# Default global logging level.
# This specifies which kinds of events are logged across
# all loggers. For any given facility this global level
# can be overriden by a facility specific level
# Note that the ConsoleHandler also has a separate level
# setting to limit messages printed to the console.
.level= INFO

# Handler specific properties.
# Describes specific configuration info for Handlers.

# default file output is in user's home directory.
java.util.logging.FileHandler.pattern = %h/java%u.log
java.util.logging.FileHandler.limit = 50000
java.util.logging.FileHandler.count = 1
java.util.logging.FileHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.XMLFormatter
# Limit the message that are printed on the console to INFO and above.
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = INFO
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter

# Facility specific properties.
# Provides extra control for each logger.

# For example, set the com.xyz.foo logger to only log SEVERE
# messages:
**<your.class.logger>.level = <level> (i.e.: INFO)**
