There were a multitude of plans. Political theorists wanted a puppet Russia with German communities on the best land available. But reality squashed those ideas quick and the Wehrmacht and SS quickly realized the optimal strategy was to turn the war into a new Russian civil war.In that case, what would be Germany's plan for Russia after they defeat it, if they were not going go colonize it?
Likely you would end up with a Russian state dependent on German support to maintain domestic control, but which would be too large for Germany to completely dominate, they would be able to maintain independent domestic policies, but would be weakened by territorial loss and loss of industrial power
