In full disclosure, Aida, this task is not one that I've ever needed
to do. But research is fun, and I like to learn new things. According
to a few searches through the list, my attention was brought firstly
to the use of 'koha-shell' for such things and secondly to the
following command to run this particular script:

$ sudo koha-shell -c '/usr/share/koha/bin/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl
-c' your_koha_name

See https://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2021-July/056491.html for
the relevant thread. If someone else out there knows better, then
please give Aida the better tip!
