Studies using EXOSAT and IUE data combined with ground-based optical and IR photometry, spectroscopy and polarimetry of the transition timescales and physical properties of the high accretion rate states of the disks in cataclysmic variables are discussed. Implications for dwarf novae stem from comparison of the timing and amplitude of the optical and IR rise with that of the UV and X-ray; the development of the optical and UV line profile changes as the outburst develops; and the similarity of the outburst flux distributions in different systems and different types of outbursts (standstills and supermaxima). These features of dwarf novae outbursts present interesting comparisons with the outbursts of systems like TV Col and GK Per.
