The error message tells us that SAS cannot find the DSN 'AXXBS' that you've specified in your libname statement.
If the user is running SAS locally, they can check there ODBC data source administrator and make sure they have AXXBS set up correctly.

If its not there they'll need the connection information to the data source of AXXBS and they'll need to set up a working DSN.

Given you are running this in EG, it appears the DSN AXXBS is not defined on the SAS Application server. If this is running on Windows then the DSN can be added to the Windows ODBC Administrator, if Unix to odbc.ini.

Hello @MG18 
The error means the connection to database  is   not configured in the first case.
