Does Databricks need GCP VMs for a workspace with no clusters in it?

Hi! I'm using GCP. Does Databricks workspace always need two e2-highmem-2 instances running as soon as I create a workspace? I seem them in my VM list in GCP console no matter what (I can stop or remove a cluster, but these two machines are always there). Is there a way to shut them down automatically when I'm not using the workspace?
