I have spent hours reading through many tutorials and administrator guide from Oracle with no luck.

The purpose of this question is to do simple copy and paste of files to the new pool that I have created.

Below are the steps I have recorded:

sudo fdisk -l ##for device names
sudo zpool create pooltank raidz /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
sudo zfs create pooltank/home
sudo zpool status:

pool: pooltank state: ONLINE config:

NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
pooltank    ONLINE       0     0     0
  raidz1-0  ONLINE       0     0     0
    sda     ONLINE       0     0     0
    sdb     ONLINE       0     0     0
    sdc     ONLINE       0     0     0
    sdd     ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: no known data errors

df -h status

pooltank/home/Docker   27T  256K   27T   1% /pooltank/home/Docker

As you can see I'm quite confused and I don't know if I would need to reinstall Ubuntu. Please advise or point me to the precise yet easy to understand guide.

Thank you very much and Merry Christmas!

I have solved this problem through folder permission and ownership. Something that Ubuntu guide should include as a note. Link https://askubuntu.com/questions/6723/change-folder-permissions-and-ownership

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
