You can use BR*Tools for Oracle to show information about index partitions.
BRGUI or BRTOOLS:
Choose Segment management Additional segment functions Show index partitions .
BRGUI or BRTOOLS displays the menu BRSPACE main options for showing database information, where you specify the options with which you call BRSPACE.
Set the required options:

BRSPACE command line (command) |
This shows you the BRSPACE -f dbshow -c ipinfo command that is to be executed using the current settings. |
If required, in Database table you can enter the names of multiple tables or indexes by using wildcards. For more information, see “Selecting Objects” in Segment Management with BR*Tools.
In Database tablespace, you can specify multiple objects but you cannot use wildcards.
BRSPACE processes all the index partitions in the specified tablespace(s), or the index partitions belonging to the specified owner(s), table(s), or index(es).
Choose Continue
BRGUI or BRTOOLS prompts you to start BRSPACE.
Choose Continue to start BRSPACE.
Command line:
Enter at least the following command:
