We show that the X-ray enhancement light curves of transient AXP/SGRs can be reproduced by the active fallback disk model. We solve the diffusion equation for the relaxation of a disk that has been pushed back by a soft gamma-ray burst. Our preliminary results indicate that a critical temperature around 1500 K leads to a thermal-viscous instability in the fallback disks of all AXP/SGRs. The effect of the instability on the light curves are different for transient and persistent sources due to different pre-burst disk conditions in these systems.
