<p>
Sets the name of a previously created logical replication slot for a change data capture (CDC) load of the
PostgreSQL source instance.
</p>
<p>
When used with the <code>CdcStartPosition</code> request parameter for the DMS API , this attribute also makes it
possible to use native CDC start points. DMS verifies that the specified logical replication slot exists before
starting the CDC load task. It also verifies that the task was created with a valid setting of
<code>CdcStartPosition</code>. If the specified slot doesn't exist or the task doesn't have a valid
<code>CdcStartPosition</code> setting, DMS raises an error.
</p>
