According to the official Google documentation and this post, there is a feature for creating instances, named instance templates. The latter lets you configure the instance’s properties, to be used in a managed group of Virtual Machines (VM) or individual VMs.

Quoting the documentation:

“An Instance Group is a collection of virtual machine (VM) instances that you can manage as a single entity.”

It contains identical instances that are based on an instance template. Here, you may find the instructions on how to create it.

When I tried to reproduce as an example (from the linked documentation), first I created an Instance Template with this command:

gcloud compute instance-templates create example-template-custom --machine-type n1-standard-4 --image-family debian-9 --image-project debian-cloud --boot-disk-size 250GB

And then when I executed this command:

gcloud compute instance-groups managed create example-group --base-instance-name test --size 3 --template example-template-custom

to create the Instance Group, 3 VMs have been created in my GCP Console with the names:

test-j1wl

test-ksg6

test-ps1b

on the region I specified from the Shell.

Alternatively, you can use Terraform to manage your GCP VM instances in a corresponding way, as stated in here.
