Question: What can I do to see if I have partitioning used and installed?

Answer:  To see if partitioning is used and installed, you can run these queries:

-- installed and used
-- *******************************************************

col c1 heading 'Partitioning|Installed?' format a20

select 
   decode(count(*), 0, 'No', 'Yes') c1
from ( select 1 
       from 
          dba_part_tables
where owner not in ('SYSMAN', 'SH', 'SYS', 'SYSTEM')
and rownum = 1 );

col c1 heading 'Partitioning|Used' format a20

select 
   decode(count(*), 0, 'No', 'Yes') c1
