First install openvswitch, and then install VMs ( otherwise host takes normal linux bridge), and at the VM side the interface created as eth0 and host side it creates vnet0 for the VM. For the second VM it becomes vnet1. You need not add vnet0 and vnet1 explicitly. But you have to add the physical interface (eth0) to the bridge explicitly at host side. You can see the configuration file ( xml file for each VM, and modify according to it. Ubuntu 12.04 supports virtmanager version less than 0.9 , and it seems that it would not allow to add bridge=openvswitch in the configuration file.
