how to get the joblog for different instance and sub job status

Same way as you would for a 'normal' job, you just add the invocation id to the jobname with a dot between the two. So you would use jobseq.jobb as the jobname when checking status or pulling the log information.

Read the help on DSGetJobInfo() function. One of the things you can return is a list of invocation IDs.
