Models with the mass transfer rate being enhanced during outbursts are calculated to show that (1) "narrow" outbursts correspond to the case of moderate enhancements, and (2) "wide" outbursts are most likely due to major enhancements, which make the mass transfer rate higher than the critical dwarf nova instability level and result in steady-state accretion. Durations of such outburst must be controlled by factors other than the viscous time scale of the disk.
