Proc sql;
Create table test as
Select *
From dsn1 a inner join dsn2 b
On a.key1=b.key2 or a.key1a=b.key2;
Quit;

Hope this helps...
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;
