In addition to Cyril's purely Pentaho solution, you can also define a crontab (your server is linux, isn't it?) which copy the pentaho.log at schedule time.

Note that, in a few month, you will also want a crontab that deletes old logs, from pentaho and catalina. Something like this.

You would have to modify your /path/to/biserver-ce/tomcat/webapps/pentaho/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml

Then just modify the param during which time you want the logfile to be created.

  <param name="File" value="pentaho.log"/>
  <param name="Append" value="false"/>

  <!-- Rollover at midnight each day -->
  <param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd"/>

  <!-- Rollover at the top of each hour
  <param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH"/>
  -->
