You can set the location of a custom logback file on the command line like this:

```haskell
_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dlogback.configurationFile=my-script-logback.xml" daml script ...

```

You can get a starter file to customize from `~/.daml/sdk/x.y.z/daml-sdk/script-logback.xml`.

It works the same way [for daml sandbox](https://discuss.daml.com/t/using-a-custom-logback-xml-for-the-sandbox/154/7), of course.
