I have checked the log files. It appeared that no details appended after
restarting simulation (after power failure at 6.5 ns), Even Though the
'terminal' Ubuntu 16.04 shows that the simulation successfully restarted
from 6.5 ns (used 8 processor cores + Graphics card GTX 780Ti) and
completed the entire 8 ns simulation...!!.

I used the command (gromacs 5.1.4),  mdrun -s md.tpr -cpi state.cpt

I also tried, mdrun -s md.tpr -cpi state.cpt -append

Is it any modification required in command?

Regards,
Adarsh V. K.
