Option B - the classic 'backup and restore' approach. It's like the duct tape of Calm scaling: it may not be fancy, but it gets the job done.

Option C? Really? Destroying the master Calm VM? That's like trying to put out a fire by throwing gasoline on it!

Option A sounds like a lot of work. Why create new Prism Central VMs when you can just spin up new Calm VMs from the existing image?

I'm not sure about Option C - destroying the master Calm VM sounds a bit risky to me. I'd rather stick with a more conservative approach like Option B.
