@animeai I ran all steps again: plexname@plexserver:~/ansible-nas$ sudo ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
- geerlingguy.docker (2.5.2) is already installed, skipping.
- bertvv.samba (v2.7.0) is already installed, skipping.
- geerlingguy.nfs (1.5.0) is already installed, skipping.
plexname@plexserver:~/ansible-nas$ ansible-playbook -i inventories/my-ansible-nas/inventory nas.yml -b -K

External Access
Traefik will allow access to certain applications externally. To enable this you'll either; a domain name that points to your
home static IP address, the cloudflare with the cloudflare_ddns dynamic DNS container enabled, or use a dynamic DNS provider like no-ip.
You'll also need to map ports 80 and 443 from your router to your ansible-nas server, then enable the per-app "available_externally"
settings.

@chuy As I said, your problem is in the inventory file. The overlay2->zfs was just a reminder ;)

You inventory file is not modified correctly. You should have this line uncommented in inventory:
ansible-nas ansible_connection=local ansible_host=localhost
this is in three backticks
testing Changed ZFS tu lowercase

@animeai , thank you, I understand now, there is a file called 'inventory' and a Folder called 'inventories' that has deeper inside my configuration (sorry English is not my first language), I did not edit the file just the nas.yml file
here i show my inventory file (now edited)

docker_Storage_driver) into your inventory file. They go into your nas.yml.
@chuy 18.04.1 LTS is not the current version of ubuntu. Your best bet is to download and install a fresh copy of 18.04.03 and perform a fresh installation on your server. If for whatever reason you can't do this, you'll need to run:sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
You'll need to make sure the server has an IP address on your local network and that apt is updating from the internet. Nobody should be using cdrom as the apt repository.
Take a look at https://www.fosslinux.com/6406/how-to-install-ubuntu-server-18-04-lts.htm
If you think you can follow some complex instructions, you might also want to take a look at https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS but I would suggest against this given your lack of linux experience.
If you don't want to install ubuntu onto zfs (second link) make sure you don't try and install it onto your existing zfs drives by mistake - unplug these before the install to avoid losing any data. YOu also won't be able to have zfs as your root filesystem if you already have data on the zfs drives you don't want to lose.
If you want something easier to install (since you only seem to want to have plex on your NAS) you might want to take a look at FreeNAS as you manage this through a web based GUI. It has a plex plugin that is dead easy to install. Once installed though, don't upgrade to a new version - this tend to break stuff and is the whole reason a lot of us moved to ansible-nas or other alternatives! If you want simple, almost plug and play, FreeNAS is your friend. If you want to learn linux and are prepared to google to troubleshoot problems, then Ansible-NAS is a much more powerful system.
