For user initiated archives, backups, and restores on Unix, logs are kept under /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/user_ops/username/jobs and /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/user_ops/<username>/logs. For NT, these logs are kept under <install_path>\VERITAS\NetBackup\logs\bpkar\yymmdd.log. Win95/98 activity logs are kept under <install_path>\VERITAS\NetBackup\logs\bpcd\yymmdd.log. If you allow client side restore i.e., you dont specify DISALLOW_CLIENT_LIST_RESTORE, you should look under the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/user_ops same path as the master, but the logs will be created locally.
