AWS DMS Replication Task Stopped Logging

Question

I have been searching for the culprit. Everything from the article below seems in place, however, I can't get DMS Migration Tasks to create a group and log events to Cloudwatch. This has been working perfectly for a long time and recently stopped after a renaming effort.

**Is there anywhere I can look to see why the log group creation failed or to verify it is a permission issue for sanity?**

**Here are the task settings for each task where logging is enabled:**

```
{
    "Logging": {
        "EnableLogging": true,
        "EnableLogContext": false,

```

**Here is a dms granted IAM Role:**

Accepted Answer

the IAM role needs to named as dms-cloudwatch-logs-role explicitly 
DMS task logging wont work if the role name is not dms-cloudwatch-logs-role
