Different magnetic field configurations are proposed or required for CME initiations by different models. In particular, "breakout" model (Antiochos, 1998; Antiochos et al., 1999) requires a mutiflux system that allows closed flux transfer between different systems and energy release during the euption of an underlying sheared structure. On the other hand, Linker et al. (2003) showed with MHD simulations that adequate amount of flux cancellation at the neutral line at the base of a single arcade structure may also lead to an eruption of a sheared structure. Debates are on going between different CME initiation models. We found, using observational data and PFSS model extrapolations, that both multiflux system and single arcade configuration exist at CME source regions. We present these cases and our analyses of the magnetic field topology and other characteristics of the events. *work suppoted by NSF/ATM, DOD/solarMURI, and the Center for Integrated Space Weather Modeling (an NSF Science and Technology Center).
