Training Never Starts in Single GPU machine (Solution)

[TheSeriousProgrammer]

Hi , I dont use much pytorch-lightning or performed distributed training (noob here),
but found that the training never starts on a single gpu single node configuration

The solution which I found out for the same was to modify the num_nodes parameter in your train configuration to 1
If number is greater that 1 pytorch lightning waits for the other nodes I presume

It took a lot of time for me to get it right , putting it out for fellow noobs : )

Thanks for sharing such an incredible work to the community !!!
