TypeError: perform_nocolor_split(): incompatible function arguments. #69

Description

@vedantgoswami

We are currently working with llama model in megatron(Specifically MEGATRON-LLAMA). We tried to run pretraining llama on single node with 8 GPUs using torchrun commnad, the training went perfectly fine but when we tried to run on multinode using slurm there was some TypeError: perform_nocolor_split(): incompatible function arguments.
we are using PyTorch NGC Container ( version: 24.01)
