Greeting.
I will be updating the IOS from Ver 8.2 to 8.7.
1. Any issues on updating on separate subnets i.e. 10.4.x.y (Where WLC is) to Static through MPLS to 8 other locations
10.5.x.y 10.6.x.y?
2. I would like to do just 1 or 2 subnet sites at first to test before rolling out to all Thin other AP's If I read the the doc correctly
All ap's will be updated at the same time. Can I go back and do a couple of sites at a time?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi,
8.7 code is not supported on Cisco 5508 Model any more. You can upgrade to 8.3.143.0 or 8.5.140.0 based on the AP model in your location.
For Concern 1:
You can do pre-image upload option to download the image to all the APs and if you reboot the controller during downtime APs will join immediately at moment the WLC came UP.
For Concern 2:
Subnet wise upgrade is not possibe.
If you go with normal process like uploading the image to controller and then rebooting the WLC, Then all the APs will try to download the image at a time.
Read the Release notes of the image you are planning to upgrade as it may have limitation which can affect your devices.
