Publishing Tableau Dashboard with R scripts to Server

I have built a Dashboard that has multiple calculations using R Scripts and now I want to publish this to our internal Server. I get the following error message:

"This worksheet contains R scripts, which cannot be viewed on the target platform until the administrator configures an Rserve connection."

From what I understand, the administrator has to configure the Rserve, but what about the rest of the installed packages I have in use? Should the administrator install those too and every time I use a new package, I should inform him to install that particular package?

You need to install the packages on the server that your script will use. Then make sure to start Rserve there and connect your Tableau workbook to the server where Rserve is used (using Rserve connection in Tableau).

Tableau described the process pretty well:
