The first thing that comes to my mind is using a macro. Open all the
files ( vim tomcat*/**/server.xml ), record a macro in one file( see
below ), and execute it for other files( :bufdo execute "@a" ). The
sequence would be something like this:

qa - start recording and name it a
gg - make sure we are the start of file
30G - go to line 30
4w - move 4 words, this brings cursor to 8 of 8005
100C-a - increment the number by 100 ( note C-a is Control a)
94G - the rest should be evident now
4w
C-a
119G
4w
100C-a
