Which N-able product does Lavawall deploy through?

Lavawall® deploys through N-able N-sight RMM using uploaded scripts. You add the Windows PowerShell script and the macOS and Linux bash scripts to N-sight Script Manager, then run them against devices as an on-demand task.

Do I upload a separate script for each operating system?

Yes. Download the Windows (.ps1), macOS (.sh), and Linux (.sh) scripts you need from the Lavawall® console, then upload each one into N-sight Script Manager with its own name and operating system. You only upload the ones you actually use.

How do I run the Lavawall install in N-sight?

In All Devices view, right-click a device, choose Task then Add, and select the Lavawall® script. Name the task, set the frequency to Manual (on-demand), configure the schedule and execution time limit (typically under five minutes), and click Finish.

Does Lavawall replace N-able?

Yes, when you are ready. Lavawall® is an RMM that covers remote support, patching, and scripting itself, with security, GRC, breach detection, and analytics in the same agent and console. You can install it through N-sight and run both side by side while you move over. If you are weighing a full switch, the N-able comparison page walks through where each tool fits.

N-able integration

Install Lavawall through N-able

Lavawall® is a multi-tenant RMM and remote support platform for MSPs and IT teams, with patching, security monitoring, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace breach detection, and compliance built into the same agent and console. It deploys through N-able N-sight as an uploaded script that runs as an on-demand task, and both can run side by side while you move over.

How the N-able integration works

Technicians get browser-based remote control, a background admin workspace, and a remote shell on Windows and Mac, scripting on Linux, and ad-hoc support for computers without the agent, with end-to-end encrypted sessions available. Lavawall® can run on its own as your RMM, or be installed through N-able N-sight or any tool that runs a script, while you move over. It also collects compliance evidence for 70+ frameworks, detects Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace breaches, and hunts for ransomware. For what N-able itself covers, check N-able’s documentation.

In the Lavawall® console you download the install scripts you need (Windows .ps1, macOS .sh, Linux .sh), then upload each one into N-sight Script Manager. From All Devices view you add a task that runs the script on demand. The script installs the Lavawall® agent, which can run alongside your N-able agent while you move over, without interfering with it.

What data flows

Once the agent is installed through N-sight, Lavawall® collects and correlates:

Endpoint state across Windows, macOS, and Linux: patch status, configuration posture, application inventory, and hardware health.
Cloud signals from Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Azure, and Google Workspace, pulled directly from those tenants.
Compliance evidence mapped to 70+ frameworks, updated in real time as the fleet changes.
Security findings from configuration assessment, ransomware indicator hunting, and AV or EDR correlation.

Lavawall® reads directly from the endpoint and the cloud tenants, so your coverage is not limited to what N-able happens to inventory.

Setup steps

In the Lavawall® console, click Computers, then Download/Add.
Select the target company from the drop-down.
Download the scripts you need: Windows (.ps1), macOS (.sh), Linux (.sh).
Log into N-sight RMM and go to Automation > Script Manager.
Click Upload Script and set the name, operating system, and optional category and description, then save.
Repeat the upload for each operating system you need.
In All Devices view, right-click a device, then Task > Add.
Select the Lavawall® script, name the task, and enter any parameters.
Set frequency to Manual (on-demand) and set the schedule and execution time limit (typically under five minutes).
Click Finish.

Thinking about switching?

You can move at your own pace. Lavawall® covers remote support, patching, and scripting itself, so it can run on its own as your RMM. Install it through N-sight, run both side by side while you move over, and retire N-able when you are ready. If you are weighing a full move, the Lavawall® alternative to N-able page lays out where each tool fits and what consolidating looks like.
