COMMENTS
a(n) = 2 <=> the set S = {1..n} has only one decomposition into smaller subsets with equal element sum.

FORMULA
a(n) = |{d|n*(n+1)/2 : d>=n}|.
EXAMPLE
a(6) = 2, because 6*7/2=21 with divisors {1,3,7,21}, but only 7 and 21 are >=6. S={1..6} has only one decomposition into smaller subsets with equal element sum: {1,6}, {2,5}, {3,4}.
a(7) = 3; 7*8/2=28 with divisors {1,2,4,7,14,28}, 3 of which are >=7. S={1..7} has 5 decompositions into smaller subsets with equal element sum.
MAPLE
with(numtheory):
a:= n-> nops(select(x-> x>=n, divisors(n*(n+1)/2))):
seq(a(n), n=1..120);
