We consider the effect of density distribution evolution on the global one-armed oscillation modes in disks around Be stars. Previous studies of global oscillations in Be disks assumed a power-law density distribution of the disk. However, observational results show that some Be stars exhibit evidence of formation and dissipation of the equatorial disk. This causes the disk density distribution can be far from a power-law form. Performing calculations for several times in the disk formation and dissipation stages, we find one-armed modes confined to the inner part of the disk in both stages. In the disk formation stage, the oscillation frequency stays approximately constant after the disk is fully developed. In the dissipation stage of the Be disk, the local precession frequency is, in general, higher than in the disk formation stage. Thus, we expect that V/R periods become shorter as the innermost part of the disk starts to accrete.
