Grab the BIND ARM for your version:

There it indirectly calls out that logging is it's own section (e.g. It
doesn't say "this is valid in options or views" like it does for many other
things)... It is it's own stanza:
options {
};
controls {
};
acl {
};
[...]
logging {
channel "config" {
file "/var/log/config" versions 3 size 10485760;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
};
channel "messages" {
file "/var/log/messages" versions 3 size 10485760;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
};
channel "security" {
file "/var/log/security" versions 3 size 10485760;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
};
channel "xfer" {
file "/var/log/xfer" versions 3 size 10485760;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
};
category "default" {
"messages";
};
category "general" {
"messages";
};
[...]
};
