En este documento, se explica cómo crear una instancia de máquina virtual (VM) que tenga propiedades similares a las de una VM existente con la consola de Google Cloud.
Si tienes una VM con propiedades que deseas volver a usar, puedes crear una VM basada en ella. Puedes crear la VM con las mismas propiedades que la VM de referencia o modificarlas. Esto es útil cuando necesitas crear una VM rápidamente, como en las siguientes situaciones:
Implementación rápida
Escalamiento
En prueba
Recuperación ante desastres
Crea una VM similar a una VM existente
Para crear una VM con propiedades similares a una VM existente, haz lo siguiente:
En la consola de Google Cloud, ve a la página Instancias de VM.

You can create the VM by using the same properties as the\nreference VM or by modifying them. This is useful when you need to quickly\ncreate a VM, such as in the following scenarios:\n\n- Rapid deployment\n\n- Scaling\n\n- Testing\n\n- Disaster recovery\n\n| **Important:** When creating the VM, the Google Cloud console uses the reference VM's properties. However, the Google Cloud console doesn't copy any data from the reference VM or from any Persistent Disk volumes attached to it.\n\nCreate a VM similar to an existing VM\n\nTo create a VM with similar properties to an existing VM, do the following:\n\n1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the **VM instances** page.\n\n [Go to VM instances](https://console.cloud.google.com/compute/instances)\n2. In the **Name** column, click the name of an existing VM which you want to\n use to create your VM.\n\n The **VM instance details** page opens.\n3. Click **Create similar**.\n\n The **Create an instance** page opens. By default, the Google Cloud console\n specifies the same properties as the reference VM.\n4. Customize the properties of the VM.\n\n | **Note:** To view the equivalent Google Cloud CLI, Compute Engine API, or Terraform code to create the VM, click **Equivalent code**.\n5. Click **Create**.\n\nTroubleshoot\n\nIf you encounter issues when creating VMs, then see\n[Troubleshoot creating, updating and deleting VMs](/compute/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-vm-creation).\n\nWhat's next\n\n- [Add persistent disks to the new VM](/compute/docs/disks/add-persistent-disk)\n- [Transfer files to the new VM](/compute/docs/instances/transfer-files)\n- [Create a VM from an image](/compute/docs/instances/create-start-instance#startinginstancewithimage)\n- [Create a VM from an instance template](/compute/docs/instances/create-vm-from-instance-template)\n- [Connect to the VM](/compute/docs/instances/connecting-to-instance)"]]
