Did you actually configure sFlow? The commands you listed below don't indicate that. You should either look at the example in ovs-vsctl (and read the ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page) or follow Peter Phaal's suggestion.

I also installed a Host sFlow on that server, but it just monitors the local server's performance. I am wondering how can I let the ovs send sflow data to the configured collector or how can I connect the Host sFlow to OVS to let it monitor the traffic on the virtual bridge. I will really appreciate if you can give me some advice. Thanks a lot.
