One additional question, if I may: I will need to get this CA

Hmmm... I'm not sure I know enough to answer that question.
Some folks will generate their own certificates in-house. When they do
that, you really need to get their CA certificate so your system knows
that it should trust the certs.
Others will get their certificates from a public CA. In those cases,
you should already have the CA Certificate on your machine, and
therefore it shouldn't be necessary. This would be the case if they got
their cert from VeriSign or Thawte, for example.
The problem comes when they get their certificate from someone like
GoDaddy. Most browsers and PC software already trusts this, but IBM
doesn't include these CA certs with OS/400... and therefore it needs to
be installed manually. In that case, I'd go to whomever the vendor is
(GoDaddy in my example) and get the CA cert(s) from them, and insstall
them into the DCM.
I'd start by using OpenSSL to do some analysis on the certs you're
receiving to find out exactly what you are missing.
I've found in many cases, OpenSSL shows me the actual certs I'm missing,
and I can just copy/paste them into a file in my IFS, then install them
into the DCM, saving me the hassle of trying to explain the situation to
other people. (Which can be a frustrating exercise)
