Thank you very much, David! That is exactly what I was missing. Now the hosts 
are pinging each other.

Appreciate your help!

Have a great day.

Cheers,
Sundar

Hi Sundar,

Maybe the problem could be that you have to tell your br-int switch that the 
port that connects to enp1s0 is a trunk interface and carries VLAN 3.

Something like the following command issued in host 3 could do the job:

  ovs-vsctl set port enp1s0 trunk=3

Just in case it is useful, in VNX (Virtual Networks over linuX, 
http://vnx.dit.upm.es) site we have an example scenario using OVS and VLANs:

http://web.dit.upm.es/vnxwiki/index.php/Vnx-tutorial-openvswitch

In section 4 in that page you can find the ovs-vsctl commands that VNX tool 
issues to create the scenario and configure VLANs.
