If I understand correctly you wanted to add root also. I suggest to make one bundle intermediate+root name of CA file.

Example: key: xyz.key

Cert: xyz.crt

Chain: xyz_ca.crt(intermediate+root)

Hope requirement will be completed.

Thanks

Note: Including the root CA certificate in the bundle is optional and does not affect its functionality.

Yes it is optional but for some systems it is required to have end-entity certificate given to the browser SSL request. All the intermediate certificates need to be present along with the end-entity (server) certificate when receiving the SSL connection request. And for this, we need to group or create certificate bundle as per details given by .

Hope it helps!
