How to Resolve Manually
To enable enhanced monitoring on your RDS Instances, you will need to head to the Additional Configuration -> Monitoring section of your instance to enable this if it is not already.
You will be able to set the Granularity and Monitoring Role (creating a new database with this set to "default" will authorize RDS to create the IAM role rds-monitoring-role)
You are also able to set the log types to publish to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, they are:
- Audit Log
- Error Log
- General Log
- Slow Query Log
