created DSVM machine through Azure batch using below options. However, am not able to execute the R script. Getting the Rscript command not found error while running it on ADF. Hope DSVM image machines has R installed by default. Python scripts are running fine.

DSVM :
MarketPlace (Linux/Windows) as an Image Type
microsoft-dsvm as a Publisher
dsvm-windows as an offer
Selected a very small VM

Error : 'Rscript' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
