Providing sample data would help.

 

Below code sample assumes that the key in "dsn2" is unique. If this is not the case then you would need tag "multidata" in the hash and you would need to loop over the hash entries with the same key if there is a match.

data dsn1;
  input key1 key1a @@;
  source1='dsn1';
  output;
  datalines;
1 1 1 2 9 2 9 9
;
run;

data dsn2;
  input key2 @@;
  source2='dsn2';
  output;
  datalines;
1 2 3
;
run;

data want(drop=_rc);
  set dsn1;

  if _n_=1 then
    do;
      if 0 then set dsn2;
      dcl hash h(dataset:'dsn2');
      _rc=h.defineKey('key2');
      _rc=h.defineData(all:'y');
      _rc=h.defineDone();
    end;

  if h.find(key:key1)=0 then
    do;
      match='key1 ';
      output;
    end;
  else if h.find(key:key1a)=0 then
    do;
      match='key1a';
      output;
    end;
run;
